My advice.
Dont add anything but rock untill the tanks cycled.

Re: what firsts srimp&snals or fish
Hi and Welcome. Can you provide us with a little more info about the tank? How long has it been running? What are your stats? Where are you at with your cycle, etc...
If you're still going thru the cycle, Yote is correct. Dont add anything until it is completed. After completion of your cycle, you can add a fish or two... Current Aquarium(s) Description: 80 Gal.

Re: what firsts srimp&snals or fish
If your tank is cycled I would add fish first so they can produce some waste and then introduce snails to clean up around the place. Don't add a shrimp at least 3 weeks after your cycle is complete.

Re: what firsts srimp&snals or fish
Yeah,that'll get the particles.Just be sure to clean it at least once a week or you'll have high nitrates.
