Do Mexican turbos tank breed?

[jnfallon]

Cause I have 1000's of 1/4" snails that look like timy mexican turbos. I also have cerith and nerite, but it doesnt look anything like those.

Corals seem unaffected.

They appear at first lights off (my off is staggered) in amazing numbers.

Maybe I'll be able to harvest soon?? If anyone wants 5 or 6 hundred, let me know.

P.s. What happened to Dr. Ron Shimek?

I don't think mexican turbos tank breed. I also have many small snails that seem like yours. If I turn the lights on at night, they literally drop right off the glass. The only problem I have with them is that they sometimes get caught in my powerheads and intakes.

Ok, according to Dr. Ron, they are apparently collonista sp.

They are beneficial and will take care of all my grazer needs.

Woot!

Anyone want a few hundred, let me know.

Of course ed. Yes I am. I have lots of water, a few sticks, and 8 million snalis, now.

What do you have? Pm me, pls.

Okey dokie. Should be interesting fishing all the little f'ers out.


I figure a siphon and a stick to dislodge them.

I will take some if K is picking up. Wake up early one morning and you should be able to get hundreds off the glass with a hand net.
