Hello all. Quick question. I got some cerith snails a few months ago. I now see several dozen pinhead size ceriths climbing on the glass. Has anyone else experience this?

They lay zig zagged eggs trails. Usually near the top. I don’t think my population has grown so I think the eggs need proper care to reproduce. Just from my experience.

I’ve had ceriths reproduce and once dealt with a dwarf cerith explosion… as in easily well over 200-300 in my 90 gallon tank.
Thanks these are the dwarf variety. I'm getting ready to start a 150, up from a biocube 32 so I'll throw some in there once I get gping

I am absolutely seeing this— dozens of baby ceriths this week in one corner of the tank, all of a sudden. More than I originally bought. Free CUC!
