Tanks, just put'm in today and the clung to the side of the tank like it's where they belong. Fortunately there is some one the bottom edge of tank. Will they take it like sea veggies or macro algae like I feed to my purple tang? :happyfish

Specifically, they eat Diatoms.

What are Diatoms?

 

[travis89]

The brown/yellow/tan film on the bottom substrate.I think.

They don't call them turbo snails for nothing. Right after the lights went lunar the went into turbo mode.

:happyfish I got off tap as soon as I discovered Real Ocean Water at ***** now only the best for my crew. You should see my tank now my tang just brightened right up and needless to say no more mixing. The ph is 8.3 and it says just add fish on the box no lie.
