IMO neither. They work tirelessly, but don't accomplish much since they are so small. The breed like crazy unless you have a predator (like a six line wrasse). The biggest complaint I have is they have a seriously love affair with powerheads and are just the right size to jam the impeller.

Double post? Oh, I don't feel like looking for the second oone. In any case, it's a Collonista snail. Graizers. Good.

yep. they stay small, and will multiply in the tank. 100% reef safe. (or atleast i have never heard anyone say they attack anything)

I did the double post... Sorry for the confusion. The system froze up (either mine or RC).

Thank you for the information I guess I will let them propegate and then release a six line to keep them in check
