Too many snails!!

r.bergonia19 · Sep 2, 2016

So my snail gave birth to this to many snails and idk what to do with them. Any idea what to do with them they're just too many.
Trust me I have more of what's in the pic.
And these snails are actually expensive, my LFS sell them for 4.99$ each.

Look like trochus. I'll take all the trochus you got buddy.

Mine just spawned last week, I removed the sponges and turned off my filter . looking at your infestation I should've probably skimmed some of them out. On the positive note these guys are probably one of the most efficient snails there are .

On a side note if his LFS is charging $5.00 a snail he needs to find another LFS. He's getting ripped off. Liveaquaria charges $2.79 each and even my LFS only charges I think $2.99 each.

If you have that many snails, they are eating something. If there wasn't sufficient food they would not have survived. I would either feed less and remove some or not worry about it.
