Hey guys-
We moved last weekend, which meant a total tear-down and rebuild of my 90G reef. We made the decision to ditch our deep sand bed and currently have no substrate in the aquarium. I actually like it a lot better. We've had issues with cyno/ red algae since the tank was established 2+ years ago and the sand seems to be the main culprit to that (it was reused sand... I know... I know... we'll call that lack of experience in the beginning). Anyway...
Everyone is happy and doing well, except I have about 8 or 10 Nassarius Snails. They've got no sand to bury down in. Should I find them new homes, or will they be ok without a sand bed?
We still may do some type of thin substrate, but we haven't decided yet.
Any input would be helpful! Thanks!
