Dear all,

Last time I switch from ASW to NSW and apparently may be some ova of this snails got into my system . I ah e seen that population grow , will this be affection my tank later on ? What is this snails name ? Beneficial or not?

Lastly, I understand that if a tank has any contaminant or diatoms then snails will be the one die off? But I can see this snails are growing population will this rule out my tank from any of the above ?

Cheers,


MD

I see more than one type of snail. The one in the first picture on top of the "stack" I think is trochus, and the one on the bottom looks like a cowrie? Can you get better pics? (Turn off the blues)
