What to do with extra tank

[salty guy]

I have a extra 10gal tank that use to be for fresh water fish. I filled it up with salt water and put a filter on it and put in some LR that I found that was really neat. I put it in this tank to make sure it was cured all the way and would not spike my tank. I will be taking the rock out this week some time since it has been in for about 4 weeks and every thing has 0 out. So since i have this tank I was thinking of buying 10 or so turbo snails and hopping to have them breed. Can this happen or am I just wishful thinking?

do you have a QT? if not this would be perfect. curing your rock in it is not a bad thing but i thing using it as a QT will be more beneficial in the long run. you can cure rock in a plastic bin if you had to. just MO.

Yes my main tank is my 29 I also have:
15 Gal Q tank has dead coral in it for security of fish filter, currently holds 3 mollies to keep tank "fresh"
15 gal Q tank for those that are expecting little ones.
10 Gal rock tank for aging live rock
10 Gal spare tank, for breeding snails??

Hey salty. Do you have anyother larger fish. If so you can use the tank to breed mollies, which is pretty easy, and use the fry as feeders.

one word,
nano reef
or you could use it for breeding anything you like, snails, crabs, shrimp, algae, or
even a refugium
