Worst words you can hear are "babe i think somethings wrong with your tank.. i run over and see what you see in the video, guess my snails decided to make babies tonight just curious if I should be concerned.

 
Forgot to add my tank was crystal clear at 7pm when I got home from work posted at 9pm
 
Usually any sort of spawning is a good sign of a healthy tank! Most the time the babes wont make it through the beginning stages of life, but if it comes time and the baby snails make it, then it can be a great thing in my opinion! Free CUC

One bad side... the little babes can get into the return pumps or any kind of pumps and cause them to block up. Just something to watch out for!

Wouldn't mind that im just worried how fast they were able to fill the water column with it and if it will effect my bio load.
 
I'll have carbon on stand by haha. Everything is definitely opening it up and loving it. Thanks man appreciate your input greatly
 
@ReeferBlaine just an update it cleared up almost as fast as it clouded the water by around 11 it was almost as it didn't happen glad my wife saw when she did or we would have missed it!
