snails

I have found several of these snails in my TBS live rock shipment -- from 1/2 cm to 1 cm maybe? These are whelks, because of the "trunk," right? As in BAD snails to remove since they can harm other crustacean shells? Thank you!

Hey everyone, My tank is going through the diatom phase right now, but it's super hardcore right now. Water changes have been reducing it but there are many blotches of diatoms in areas where I simply can't reach. It seems there's way more than enough to sustain at least a few snails as the...

I saw a thread around here a few weeks ago that had pics of all different clean up crew critters and how they work in the aquarium. I tried searching for it but can’t find it. Anyone know where it might be hiding and can link it ?

Is anyone selling any stomatella snails that they would ship to upstate NY ? I'd love to have some but never see any for sale anywhere. Thanks !

Just thought I would share pics (sorry they're cell pics) of the abalone I got on Live Aquaria. He was huge at least 3+ inches. He is part of the cleanup crew in new setup. As you can see plenty of algae for him to eat. I had also put some nori in there for them but no one has touched it...

hey guys quick question. I have 125 gal tank that I set up early December 2016 and this is the second batch of astreas snails that die on me. My parameters are all on check. As for livestock I have two tangs, two clowns, some blue reef chromis, red legs, blue legs, 2 emeralds and cleaner shrimp...

I'm looking for colorful or interesting looking snails. So far I am very interested in the ninja star snails they have a very interesting shape and nice tone of gray

Discovered tonight. #1 I wish I could have gotten a better view of it, but I couldn't for the life of me get it to come into focus. and #2
