Stomatellas are my fav tank cleaners. I go out of the way to save them. Shame on you. lol

Stomatella are my favorite snails too!! They are fast, can get the algae in hard to get places, and they can flip themselves over!! Poor snail. I did see my acan eat one once.

Awesome video, thanks for sharing!

I had a "Murderous Elegance" coral who would feed himself stomatellas:

He had no problems tearing them off the wall and turning them into lunch.
