Vermetid snails acan killer

[Notsolostfish]

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

Vermitids can be difficult to get rid of, and just recently someone was saying that coral snow did not work for them, but I don't know for sure. This article may help:

I’d say up to 30 in a 150. They are nocturnal and burry themselves during the day

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.
