I didn’t realize how much of a problem vermetid snails can be, im beyond “clean the coral before it spreads” situation. Vermetid snails literally murdered some od my acans. Does coral snow kill them?

I have not used it but I have read many times that it does. I have always used bumblebee snails, haven’t had any vermatid snails in years but I keep the bumblebees in there in case I introduce them again.
 
Just know they are known to be snail killers when food options are low. But I’m sure you value your corals more than an existing snail cuc
I stocked like 20 bumble bee snails on jan last year. My tank is a 150G how many do i need? I dont see those 20 anymore tbh

Most of them hide day time, and hunt night time. I put 50 of them in my 400g tank. And day time ill spot maybe 2-3 of them. Also bumblebee is not a guarantee that they will get rid of vermetid snails, I will say that since putting them in my tank i see way less number of vermetids.
