what kind of snails?

 

[Chiefmcfuz]

Use your mag float they will be fine trust me. My Nass snails have been :bunnies: like crazy for months and I have quite a few of them myself.

That?s Great

I would love to see a pick. I have a multitude of eggs that my Nassarius Distortus lay on my glass, but I have yet to see any babies in the tank. I presume that they get gobbled up in there larva stage. I did find a very small slug/ snail the other night that looked like a miniature Turbo minus the shell. Tried taking a picture, but you can?t make out anything. Did catch a big Bergia in the shot though. If your interested will upload when I get home. It shouldn?t be a problem knocking the little buggers off the glass, but check w/ someone who has experienced this.

Welcome to the wonderful world of reefing ...only thing to watch is make sure none of the snails get between the magnet and glass,Other wise youll scratch the glass

Do you have a pic of them?

 

[duke62]

i have no pics.the only snails i have in my tank are turbos.the reason they havent got eaten is because i have nothing in my tank to eat them.i have no fish.they are so small they actually just look like algae growing.i wish i had a camera to show.im worried about the mag float crushing them so i havent cleaned my glass in 2 weeks
