So I got two babylon snails...
What has everyone's experience been like with babylon snails. Have you had any problems with them... You know eating other things you didn't intend for them to eat?
Also I initially didn't think I wanted clams... At least not yet, so I thought I'd be OK. But now I've convinced myself I want to try a clam... Ahem Ahem which I already have coming... Should I sump the snails?

Babylon snails are reef safe and are nocturnal animals and normally are visible later in the day or evening after the lights go out on the display. Similar behavior as stomatella snail

My main concern is about the clam, as according to some sites they are predatory towards clams.

We are talking about these correct? I saw them listed as reef compatible so I got some. Now I saw different reviews on them. Anyone else can chimp in? Not that I don’t trust the member above but just want to be sure whether I tell them cancel my order before it ships out.
