any cleaner shrimp would be fine

the cleanup crew don't actually eat the fish poop...

 

I supposed the red legged crabs are scarlet hermit crabs. They feed on whatever leftover you feed your fishes. But they are not very excited about filling their stomach though. Try a cleaner shrimp. It cleans up the leftover very well.

 

Fish poop will bio-degrade over time. Try getting some nassarius snails to clear up the fish poop. But the most effective way is by siphoning the poop out yourself. Have fun!
