someone already mentioned that, But then we found out it needs a 30g+ tank and it doesnt eat algae it eats the bacteria growing in your sand bed. If you go further up in the posts youll see our convo on the orange spotted shrimp goby.
Thanks for the suggestion tho!

Ceriths are supposed to be good sand snails

Unfortunatly they dont have many cerith snails at the LFS and most of the people that work there are to lazy to dig them out.

Yep I scrolled thru everything after I made the post
I had the same issue but I got a handful of ceriths to clean it up, maybe offer your LFS employee a .25 finder fee and a net to go fishing for them for you?

YA KNOW...I wouldn't offer them a freakin dime to do their job....go to the manager...you already said they have recognized how much you have spent there already....How dare the employees "not have time" to catch them
COME ON NOW...stand up for your snails!!!!

That's what they are supposed to be for.....I have BUNCHES...ok...bad example since I have algae problems

A lot have died...so I NEED MORE...I do not think I have enough in my 225...actually I don't think I have enough in any of my tanks...I am going to order a whole bunch soon....

I dont have a sump just a refugium. No Oscar in there either! How the hell can he just dissapear

Maybe hes stuck in the return pipe of the refugium? But wouldnt the flow going out be to much for him to swim up? I also dont think hed be able to fit in it

Yup he was there

I dont think anything in my tank can eat it.
I just tested ammonia and its still at 0
If it died wouldnt there be some ammonia in the tank?
