Hi Guys,
I just received a few Trochus snails. One of them came with tubes growing on its shell. Could those be Vermetid snails? Please see pics below.

HOW MUCH DOES A FISH’S FEEDING REQUIREMENTS AFFECT YOUR STOCKING DECISIONS?

  • A lot! - I avoid fish that require frequent or specialized feeding

    Votes: 7 25.0%

  • Quite a bit, but an automatic feeder can change my answer

    Votes: 5 17.9%

  • It depends on whether my nutrient export can handle it

    Votes: 5 17.9%

  • It depends on how badly I want the fish

    Votes: 9 32.1%

  • Not much. I’m willing to adjust my routine

    Votes: 6 21.4%

  • Not at all. Feeding demands don’t limit my stocking choices

    Votes: 5 17.9%

  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!

    Votes: 2 7.1%

  • I haven’t really considered this before

    Votes: 3 10.7%

  • Something else (see my comments in the thread)
