Tetras and danios are nice, but I LOVE cory cats. They're built like little tanks, but they're chill and sociable, which is a great combination. They come in so many different patterns too! I haven't kept any in a long time though, because the way I lost my last ones was kinda rough (though definitely not as rough as your whole house burning down). There was some kind of metal poisoning issue with our tap water, the kind of thing that makes humans sick too, and we didn't find out until the damage was done.
That said, I did use sand for the snail tank with the thought that I might like to have cories again some time.
And yeah, if you can't tell from the name and icon, I love snails. It's just the rams for now, but come spring, depending on my financial situation, I'd like to add a mystery snail or two (P. diffusa, sometimes also ID'd as P. bridgesii) and, maybe, if I'm lucky enough to find a local breeder, one of the Sulawesi rabbit snails (Tylomelania spp). I also have a land snail! It's a grove snail, Cepaea sp. (probably nemoralis?). Their name is Pocket. But I like the aquatic snails best. Tragically a lot of my favorite snails are intertidal species, which makes them poor choices for pets...
