What would be the best cleaner for crushed coral substrate?

Hermits and astrea snails should clean it up and also when you do water changes vacume your CC with a siphon tube

I just got a siphon tube from wal-mart. works well for me, but be careful not to suck the cc out of the tank.

Yea I don't really like the crushed coral either but that's how the tank was when my brother moved the tank to my house. I have some nassarius and astrea snails but they seem to hang on the glass and the rocks. I need something that's going to wander around the bottom.
