snails

Hello all again, Just looking for quick advice I setup a 75 gallon and it has been running a week now and mainly cycled I will say as all my levels and annomia have been good for awhile with this I added 3 PJS after 3 days of cycle after using live sand, rock and live bacteria and when the...

Hello, For the past 2 days my water has been very cloudy out of no where. All my turbo snails have become very lethargic and are exposing themselves out there shells. I did water tests and have the following. NH3/NH4: .08ppm Nitrates: 0 Nitrites: 0 Alk: 9.1 Ph: 8.0 Temp: 78 Everything else in...

Hello, I have a Fluval Evo 13.5 that has been set up since early October of last year. It has had a big algae problem since the beginning and I’ve had different inverts during this time. Currently, I have a tuxedo urchin and three electric blue hermit crabs. The urchin is pretty small but there...

When it comes to choosing your cleanup crew, there are lots of options. A well-rounded group should include a variety of different inverts, and perhaps a job specific fish or two. When it actually comes down to choosing these critters, the internet can give you a lot of variable opinions on...

I have a new cycled tank, I recently put a pair of clowns in and they seem to be very happy, I am feeding them a mix of Mysis shrimp and pellets. Question is, would it be a good idea to add a few carnivorous snails right now? I don't have any algae yet so I don't plan to add any algae snails...

Hey y'all! My tank is showing diatoms finally so I was thinking it was time to get a CUC. I would like to avoid hermits and do a snail only CUC, but not sure how many of each to get. Since I am in the beginning stages, I figured half the amount would be efficient for now, but the problem is that...

Guys, I’m sorry but after searching high & low..I need help. Below are some pictures of some snails that only come out at night, no bigger than a fresh water assassin snail and similar in shape only orange/brown & black. I’m new to this but very familiar with fresh water. I inherited a 400ltr...

It's has like-rubber hard transparent casing

I got these snails in an order. What is on them? They are in quarantine, but I don’t want to add them to my tank if it is invasive.

Ok, So we’ve had a 50 gal for around 6 months and we’ve had a few snails in other tanks for close to 8 months. We started seeing baby snails popping up on the glass in our tank over the past few days, But we didn’t think much of it. Our skimmer had also been acting up recently (kind of like what...

We are wrapping up the build of our new online invert system and we are excited to be able to offer more inverts to our online customers. What are your favorite inverts to use in your tank and what are some inverts you wish you could find available online to order? Check out some pictures...

(Tank Move and 8 week update posted in replies, July 30th) Greetings! Doing a bit of an experiment. I will get into more details as to why I am doing this particular plan in future posts. For now, the short version is that I am starting a 10g nano tank as a QT/Observation tank for live rock...

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...

Hey reefers, we are adding english subtitles to our YT-Videos - check out this one: Fauna Marin CEO Claude Schuhmacher introduces the members of the Cleaning Crew to you:

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...
