Thanks

Are you nuts? You'd have to fight me for any of mine. :razz:

Go and buy some!

PS. :wink: Just kidding. I'm sorry I don't have any right now, in fact I could probably use some more myself.

I hesitate to kind of ask this out loud, since I'm sure it will turn into a 12 page thread, but, .... Group order from J&L perhaps?

Did the snails that Kari got from Chinatown ever survive ? ... IIRC they were actually native to cooler water but apparently survived in his reeftank ?

maybe ask him if he still has any left as they were dirt cheap.

I have only ever had 2 Turbo snails in my tank and they are still there to this day ... never actually saw the benefit to having snails myself. :confused:

Well, my frag tank has a wall of algae on the back wall a few cm's thick. The snails put nice snail paths in the algae but there are not enough of them to keep up.

The main tank is fine with my 4 tangs! Just the frag tank needs some. :biggrin:

Tony, you in for a snail order?

My tank is full of the very small periwinkle type snail, the ones that really only show themselves at night. They have multiplied quite rapidly and seem to do a pretty good job of cleaning up. You're welcome to as many as you want.

Let me know,
Tim

Hey Johnathan, if you are still looking for some good snails I have about 3 to 5 tourbon snails. They are bigger (1-1.5 inch shells) and knock over my corals from time to time but for your frag tank they'd be perfect. They do a great jub on the glass. I was just going to put them in my sump but if you want them for a frag they're yours.

Ah, so no J&L order for snails then? Bummer. But if you change your mind then I'd be in.

Why don't you stir the waters, Tony? You might find support for a J&L order - but then of course you'd have to take responsibility for it. :biggrin:
