Anyone have a good colony of Stomatellas going? WTT

[Meisen]

Sorry to keep starting threads but worried the folks who have em may have already dug through my previous thread. I remembered that I wanted to restart my Stomatella population without having to sell my soul to Inland Aquatics for a dozen or two.

Willing to pay $$ or swap corals.

I also have tons of mini turbos (Collonista sp.) that I could trade.

How many are you looking for? I used to have a ton of them but not as many anymore. I will see how many I can dig up. I would trade for collanista snails.

 

[CKreef]

I have plenty of limpets!!!

 

[gsusfreak]

what is that?...a snail?

 

[SRT80]

I've had a outbreak of some kind of snails. They look like pyramids kind of. They stay on the glass. Pretty cool lookin'. I don't know how I got them, haven't added anything in awhile. They just started poppin' up out of no where. Id try to get a pic but camera battery is dead. Any idea what these could be?

MIesen, I have a pretty good population of them. DOnt know what they are worth, but I can dig you up a dozen I think by the Swap.
dont konw how much Inland wants. I used to have millions of them. I will have to catch then at night.

 

[Meisen]

RCmike, that would be great. I would love at least 3 dozen total so if you have an extra dozen or two, I will take em. I will bring a couple dozen collonistas for whatever you can scrounge.

Pickupman66, You can check out my swap thread if you are interested in trades for em. Last time I checked Inland was getting 2.00 a piece for em but I think thats way too much. Would you do 2 or 3 /1.00 for em or trade in kind (depending on size)? I pretty much want as many as you want to round up...up to 3 dozen would be fine.

I used to have them in my tank until I moved....I lost them....I would like to have some if there's any spare left.......

Can someone post a pic of them? Are they the slug looking thing with no real shell? I naturally can't do a search on RC...

Never mind I found them on Melvsreef and posted the link so you could see if you see anything like what you have Steve.

I had a ton of them at one time. I need to go down there at night to see if they are still cruising around. If so I will grab you some.

I went down last night about 3 AM and only saw about 5-6 so I better keep them My temp was out of controll this summer and I have a big wrass so I say that decimated my colony a bit. Good to know they are so good for the tank though. I did have tons of little white hard shell looking ones though. Shaped like a flat tic tac...I could grab lots of those and as many baby brittle stars as anyone wants....I have a unlimited supply of those!

 

[ct_vol]

I have a BUNCH of them... LMK if you can't get as many as you'd like Mark... Looks like you're covered though...

 

[Meisen]

Randy, I will take a dozen from you too, cant hurt to seed all three of my tanks with them again! My hogfish and pistol shrimp seem to pretty much wipe them out every time!

OK folks, thanks, looks like I am set.

 

[rcmike]

Actually I just checked and I don't have nearly as much as I did. I could only spot a couple. About a year ago they were everywhere. You might just want to get them from some other people.

If you're talking about the ones that were in your 10g tank, they're keyhole limpets. I managed to save several out of the rock and stuff and they are now cruisin' round my tank!
