additionally, I would recommend putting in a bit of reef frenzy nano. Snails naturally consume some meat and scraps just due to it being present on algae, and its good for them. If you have nass they also need some scraps

I would also recommend checking out reefcleaners. You will enter the snail rabbit hole, and before you know it you will have more species of snails than grains of sand in your tank lol.
I planned on getting some of those on my next trip to the LFS to QT for my biocube
I kinda want to see a snail tank on breeding day…You should see my snail breeding tank on cleaning day…
That said, you’ll want to double down on detritivores that will consume the poop, try looking into scavengers such as hermit crabs or possible nassarius. Some species will be more effective than others. My pistol shrimp kept the sandbed in my evo spotless.
Yep, Ive been doing that . Thanks!additionally, I would recommend putting in a bit of reef frenzy nano. Snails naturally consume some meat and scraps just due to it being present on algae, and its good for them. If you have nass they also need some scraps
too big IMO.The tiger conch seems like it might be a good option. Plus I love those little beady eyes

weird flex but okthey are detritivores, they eat their own poop and any poop they can find.
Even though I know you were messing with me.... it still made my spine shiver.You need to buy the longest centipede, erm, I meant bristle worm possible. Let them reproduce to the point that you’ll find them squirming all over your filters. Then maybe you’ll find a 10% reduction in snail poop.
Just noticed these in my frag tank. Looks like it’s part of the ugly phase. I only have a few test coral here no other livestock has been added
Definitely! im looking for any poop eating invert suggestions that aren't a bristle worm. If I must ,I must. But I would rather notI think you need some type of bacteria. Other poop eating inverts would poop too. The nassarius snails are carnivorous, i am not sure they will eat the poop, they will just hide it.
Micro brittle stars are a good choiceDefinitely! im look for any poop eating invert suggestions that aren't a bristle worm. If I must ,I must. But I would rather not
Looks like dinos or diatoms to me
Weird!... I don't have any on my glass. Are yours worms?
If I can get my hands on some... how many would you think considering the 13.5 gal and the amount of poop I'm dealing with?Micro brittle stars are a good choice
Start with 4-6 , they will reproduce to the number you need them at. That’s the fun part lolIf I can get my hands on some... how many would you think considering the 13.5 gal and the amount of poop I'm dealing with?
