Good morning all! My husband came home from golf yesterday to frags scattered on the kitchen counter, my surgical kit out (I only perform surgery on frags), open super glue bottles, and water everywhere because I drip between the tanks and the kitchen. He came home earlier than expected...oops. ;)

Okay! So, this is the first time I’ve had a tank “rimless”.
How in the world do you keep your snails from escaping? I picked up a bunch more CUC yesterday. I’ve only ever had Astrea snails. This time I got Margarita.
Sitting here watching TV last nite and my Wife says “Houston, we have a problem”.
There goes one of these new snails sliming he’s way down the outside of the tank. I’m like, you’ve got to be kidding me!
Put him back in and cleaned the outside glass. No harm done.
I get up this morning and as the lights started to ramp up, I see a snail trail on the front glass. This guy was on the back of the tank stand. I put it back in the tank and sure enough, it’s still alive.
I always put the lid on at night to keep the cats out but there is a one inch gap at the filter box end. Are they really that smart? Or that stupid?
Oh Yeah!
Good morning all!
Stay Safe!

good morning reefers, and non, if you are out there. some of the great reefers here were lookie-loos fortunate enough to stumble upon, or look over the shoulder of a reefer visiting, a site like R2R. there is no danger in learning about Salt water... or believing comments about how it doesn't draw you in. while i have your attention, check out the build threads.
