Have been researching here for a few months and now on here. Hello everyone!! I have found that this time around I have developed a snail obsession, lol. Currently have 14 different varieties including, giant knobby creeper, silver lip conch, east African ceriths, bumblebees, zig zags, nassarius vibex, stocky ceriths, etc. someone here had suggested reefcleaners.org, no problems with them ever. Currently working with two 20 gallons, getting ready to put up a 150. AI prime lighting and run UV. Also have a mangrove in each one.

That’s ******! Snails are so essential and I love the sand dwellers a ton. Really enjoy the work Babylonias do when active. Also have an affinity for the bumble bee snails all over my tank, and they have reproduced in my past tank. Looks great!

have only had both tanks going for 6 months. Thank you, didn't know the bumblebees might reproduce. Also have some trochus, I heard they will. Was out of it for about 15 years. It is now again a passion. I am very intrigued by the ceriths, just because of the proboscis. They're like an elephant in a shell, lol. Did start with a 3 inch sand bed though, just for the snails
