Saltwater. Nassarius snails are absolutely hilarious to watch at times. There’s nothing there, then you drop in some food - and poof - a dozen orange-spotted nassarius snails suddenly emerge and materialize from the substrate.

I’ve watched them make a beeline up the side of the tank, along the rim, down the outside of the tank, the stand, across the carpet...

mine sometimes go up the tank, out of the water and slide around on the lid for a few moments before dropping into the water again to find food. although they got pretty lazy and only come out at night now, I guess they are really full lol
 

When to mix up fish meal: When was the last time you tried a different brand of food for your reef?
