Colour pops best in tanks with a dark substrate, dark hardscape, green plants and/or plants with blue/cool undertones.
Please note that although clean-up crews can help make thriving ecosystems within your aquariums, they are not great to add for the sole purpose of fixing an imbalance. This can contribute to that problem by adding more to the bioload, which can cause more algae. They will also need to be fed their own food. and cannot solely rely on what is in your aquarium.
