Snails spawning

[Chriscz]

Upon seeing my tank when getting to the office, I first thought I was having an issue with the filter, or that some critter had really knocked something big over.........

but just nature doing its thing!

Looking good! Depending on your system, theres a high chance the trochus snails will reproduce!

That would be great. Ive read their free floating larval stage is relatively short (3-7 days) so hopefully some will avoid the feeding frenzy, the filter and protein skimmer, and get to settle somewhere and start to grow. I turned the filter pump off for several hours, but that may not be enough.
