He hasn't harmed anything. I thought he was going to tear them apart at first but he just pulled some dead tissue off of all of them and then went back to cleaning the rocks.
If you trade him what snails are you going to get? The next snails I get will be cerith snails and nerite. Not freshwater nerite though! There are both freshwater and saltwater nerite snails. I have freshwater ones in my freshwater tank and I LOVE them.

That's a great deal! I hope it looks awesome and grows well! Snails are fun. . I like them. I wish my nassarius were more active during the day.

Just a little update on my corals and my whole tank! Everything is doing well I believe! Got rid of my emerald due to it "attacking" (I think It was) my corals and got a much better CUC!

Haha no worries! He was a cool little fellow, but I hated having to check on my tank ever 10 minutes to see if he was on my zoas and he always was haha! So it's a lot less stressful now!
He went to a Great tank full of his own kind so I'm sure he's happy there!

What kind of salt are you using? Instant oceans reef crystals shod have plenty in it for your corals. Just do your weekly pwc and it will replenish what's been used.

Instant ocean! good then! How about feeding the corals? Didn't you recently get something? How is it working? And how are your corals doing?

I haven't gotten anything yet. I'm probably going to get something called reef snow or marine snow. My corals are doing great though! I think the candy cane eats some of the tiny copepods I see in my tank at night. Make sure you are using the reef crystals and not regular salt mix. They make 2 different kinds.

So I want to detach my pulsating Xenia from the disc it came on, and attach it directly to my liverock! Is this possible? And what materials would I need? I'm guessing a super glue and a putty?
