snails

Tank is 4 month old, YWG and Clownfish, black foot trochus snail and 3 hermits. About a month ago I bought 2 turbos, 2 nassarius and a nano conch. Drip acclimated how I always do, 1/1.5 hours emptying half of the water out each 30 mins. As soon as I add them to the tank, the conch is flipping...

So I came home to see two Mexican turbo snails thrashing around on top of each other on the glass and thought, huh that's weird, and 30 minutes later this is what I see. I'm assuming these are Mexican turbo snail eggs? Can I expect them to hatch?

I’ve had trouble keeping some snails alive for very long. Cerith and Nassarius seem to survive long term, however Astrea, Trochus, and Turbos seem to not do well. There is PLENTY of algae to eat. I suspect ingesting Dino toxins may be the cause, but I’d value a second opinion before I buy a...

This is currently what my tank looks like Question 1) the brown algae -read a lot about it being good, but how much is to much? I also have green algae on my glass. Question 2) close up of rocks with micro bubbles - is this okay? Question 3) should I be running lights on a normal day/night...

I woke up and saw on my snail what looked like mold but there’s no way that can happen, hoping someone can help me ID this thanks!

Hi there, Looking for a little advice on critters on behalf of my son as we’re not having much luck on that front. He’s 13 and has had his tank (fluval 60l spec marine) running for a year. It has the standard kit plus an added wave/flow maker and an ocean free hydra nano filter) Background...

Hi all, I usually order my CUCs online, but am always so worried about shipping in this heat. Even when using overnight shipping it still stresses me out. :) I'm in Scottsdale and usually frequent Kona Reef or Aquarium arts... Where have you found is a good place to buy CUCs locally -...

So I noticed yesterday that my galaxia coral had what looked like bubble algae on it so I took out of tank and got it off and then noticed this creature that looks like a Rolly Polly gliding under the plug . It has a hard grey shell that has some dark markings on the front and back of shell. It...

Looking for an ID on these, I’m pretty sure they are vermatid snails. New tank, 16 days in with mostly dry rock but I got a whole bunch of rock from a a tank shutdown which had been out of the tank for a week. It’s that rock which is infested. I have three seperate rock towers and I’m thinking...

Hi guys, Relatively new to reef keeping but I have came back from Christmas break to find a couple of snails in the tank that either weren’t there before Christmas or were too small for me to notice. They appear to be white shelled with tiny red stripes, and not more than a few millimetres...

So I have a zillion vermitids in my tank. Not the ones with the webs but they shoot out a single little line to catch food. I run a biocube 32. I bought 1 single bumblebee snail thinking he’d do at least something to take care of this mess. (“Mess” being a misnomer because as far as I can tell...

Added some inverts yesterday. 5 Hermits, 5 margarita snails, and 5 nassarius snails. immediately upon acclimating and adding them to the tank, one of the nassarius snails slid over the largest margarita snail(go figure) and immediately attached itself. I wasn’t sure if this was normal so I let...

Has anyone had issues with snails getting stuck in the skimmer pump water intake? My trochus snails spawned in my tank and I have a bunch of babies, which I thought was great, until this morning. I saw that my skimmer wasn't drawing in enough water so I assumed it was clogged with something...

Just got these guys out of a frag swap. Are they good or bad?

What type of snail is this? I’m thinking sundial.

Hello all! I am considering purchasing from Indo-Pacific Sea Farms (IPSF) and I have some questions about their products: Do they continue to sell Tang Heaven Gold (Sargassum)? What snails are packaged within their Live Sand Activator? I sent them an email a few days ago, but they have not...

So this is my first reef tank that I recently started and so for I think it is a success. I got a good deal at PetSmart that came with the filter, heater, lights net and thermometer. I already had a small 10 gal tank with fresh water fish and decided to try a salt water reef tank for the first...

Hi, When I set up my tank, I purchased premium uncured live rock. I did a great job curing it without killing much of the amazing small corals, multiple kinds of macro Algae (some I have never seen before like red moss). Anyway, I added a ball of chaeto directly into the tank but with the...

I've been sent a photo by a friend asking what sort of snail these are, he said he's been having some issues with hair algae recently and as it's dying back he's started to see these. Said the only snails in the tank are trochus and nasarius snails but these don't look like either of these so I...

My trochus spawned a few weeks ago, now I have a decent amount of babies in my display tank and they’re in my sump too. Should I remove them as babies, wait til they grow larger to remove or never remove? I have a 93 gallon corner bow front for reference. Before they spawned I already had 3 or 4...

We've had a lot of requests lately so here they are!
