Triggers an snails

[Konrade]

How many people here keep their triggers with snail and hermits? I kind of need some ideas as too how many people keep them with snails successfully. I am planning a 75 gallon and I am looking at the bursa trigger.

I tried large snails with a dog puffer once. Worked ok but he did go after the small ones. It will depend on the agressiveness of the trigger. Most likely he will eat them. Maybe not immediately but over time.

I have a niger and I occasionly throw some snails in there for him to eat. they are usually gone within a day or 2. You can try Ive tried things that people told me wasent going to work and it did so give it a wirl but mine loves them

Triggers and inverts generally do not do well together...

I have only heard of long spined urchins for algae cleanup in a trigger tank. None of our snails and crabs ever survived more than a few days even with feeding the triggers well.
