Nassarius at cycle

[andy321]

Can Nassarius snails be added during the cycle.

IMO, no inverts should be added until after the cycle.

Some inverts and hitchhikers do survive a cycle but I would think they do it from very cured live rock or tanks where people are doing water changes during the cycle.

I would definitely wait until after- it is the nitrite spike that can be lethal to them I understand, and the nitrates that follow aren't that great for them either.
