I started out with 10 trochus snails and now I have about 100 adults. The problem is when the lights start going out there are thousands of babies snails that come out. I need something to get rid of them. They are growing to adult size and stopping up everything. Is there something that will eat the babies?
 
Bag them up and ship them to me lol. Problem solved.
 
Sell them
 
I have a six line...not that I recommend you add that specific fish. But something started to thin their numbers in my tank.

What temp is your tank? Curious because the last time they went nuts in mine was during the summer.

I've been storing some live rock from my display in a 5g bucket thats in the low to mid 80s. I noticed a bunch of trochus babies in there recently.

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

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