Turbo Snail and Clownfish Eggs

[piper2013]

Will these snails wipe out a egg site? My snowflakes were acting like they were ready in one spot and this morning the turbo was all over that exact spot. I can't validate there were eggs but I have a high index of suspicion. Thoughts appreciated.

They've never touched my spawns, they do hang around though.

Haven't had any issues with turbo's or any other snail wiping out a tended nest. It's not unusual for pairs to act like they are ready to spawn for several days before they actually do, so there is a good chance they haven't spawned yet.

Thanks Enrieq. Appreciate the response.

Appreciate the insight. They are still frolicking!

Acting like they are ready and actually spawning are two different things. They will run that turbo off if it gets close when their ready to spawn.

Good to know! Thanks Sport.
