Derbird Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 I have been incredibly lazy... Before setting up my Red Sea tank I had my clown in a "holding tank" for about two years lol After setting up and cycling the tank miss clown went in and the old tank was unplugged and left for "when I get to it" I kind of became fascinated by it and how it changed without heat and water movement. But the time has come, a long time ago, to break it down. My question. There are dozens of small little cone shaped snails in there. Can I safely put them in to my reef tank? They must have come from my ancient 125. Or am I asking for trouble adding them in the whatever algae is on them, if they even live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or it wasn’t fully drained of water for a few months and there ended up still being a hermit crab and snails and stomatellas. Don’t let them be puffer food after they survived in their mind was the apocalypse! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
