All of them. I still have a nerite I brought over from Texas in 2004. I have snails from Reefcleaners I bought 6-7 years ago and another bunch I know I bought 5 years ago.

Yep the Trochus are awesome, I see mine "spawning" but I've never seen babies. In a friend tank that is relatively new, I see tons of baby trochus.

Awesome! That would be great if they could sustain/grow their population long-term.

Trochus are favorites, especially since they can right themselves if tipped over and I've had them reproduce in my tank.

Stomatellas are great they readily reproduce in my refugium and have the glass pretty clean. One warning though, they can end up anywhere in your system!
