    I take a visual of the tank at night when the snails are out and eating and I just try to keep at that level, it's kind of individual preference. When I see a lot of empty snail shells on the bottom, I add more of that type of snail, which usually works out to every two months, I top off the nassarius and mostly the dwarf ceriths. I've had the mexican turbos for 10 months and will replace as they die off. I like to have about 65 dwarf ceriths in my 75g because I want to get rid of the blue legs completely and I like the look of the tank with about that many dwarf ceriths, glass cleaning and rock detritus-wise
