Predator fish - Six line wrasse a good idea?

I have a 20 Long right now. I'm looking for something to remove all the creepy crawlies from my tank. I have 3 spaghetti worms(gross), various small brine or mysis shrimp I think(gross), vermittid(sp?) snails I think. Tank is pretty mature, at about 6 months or so. What kind of fish could I look into adding that would kill or eat all of these? If it eats pods too that'd be cool. Would a wrasse or hawkfish do it?

 

Just want all the gross things gone. :)

I had both and neither ate the spaghetti worms or vermitid snails but they did slowly eliminate my CUC. blue leg hermits,red legs,small snails all gone. Great fish but I had no experience with them being good at anything but killing what I PAID $$ FOR.

Any fish would love to eat those shrimp and worms. I've never seen any wrasse(in my tanks) eat vermitid snails. I don't know why people think they do. Just get the fish you really want and they will eat that stuff. Six lines are aggressive as well.

+1, I have a yellow coris and haven't seen them eat vermittid ever. It just eat pods.

 

Any fish will eat those shrimp if it can catch them.
