Really big snails are NOT glue-friendly.

Snails above the common size are immensely strong, when it comes to specimens glued or puttied to rocks.

I say this having 5 super-snails in my sump and having had them pop specimens right off the rocks, one of which is going to require some rock-moving to rescue. Ordinarily I place things by jamming them in under some rock for weight and that suffices, especially when I'm 'trying out' the light level. After the first catastrophe, I glued them in place. And that was no good with these muscle-bound mollusks. So the snails are in the sump and I've got a specimen rock to rescue. In the back, of course.

They never push things to the easy to get to spots. It's always in the back of the tank, in the middle, behind the gorgeous arch you managed to stack somehow and are positive will never the same again if you have to take it apart.
