Clean up crew in action
I just saw why we use these crustaceans to clean our tanks. I had a turbo snail get to close to a power head. I pulled it down and layed it down on the sand bed I thought it was still alive because it closed up when I pulled it off the power head. With in minutes it was covered with hermits and Nassarius Snails even had a few fish lurking around. I have a Brittle & Serpent Starfish you rarely see after the lights come on but both made there way to the newly found meal. I would in the pass taken the snail out but after see them at work I left it. If you ever smelled a dead turbo snail you know why I have removed them in the pass.Just wanted to pass this on.
