I'm tired of nerite snail eggs on my glass. I have them for 6 months and I think they are good cleaners but they leave too much eggs and I have to scrub them with razor once per week and now I made couple of scratches on my glass with razor and I'm ticked.

I want to remove them, I have 2 of them. should I remove only 1 or both of them? do they reproduce asexually and will the single nerite continue to lay eggs?

Thanks

In my experience, the eggs just fall off on their own over time so I don't sweat them too much.
 

Looking back to your reefing roots: Did you start with Instant Ocean salt?
