In the last two months I have taken out at least ten cone snails of various sizes from my sps tank. During that time I have lost several colonies and in each case there was a cone snail on the base. I thought they did not eat corals, but would be interested if anyone has shared this experience? And does anyone know if they do damage sps corals?

then yes. I never had a problem with my acros, but i did have a problem with them killing parts of my birds nest at the base. I took them all out and have only left 2 of these

and have not had any problems.
