    Ok, so I have them. What can I do? Is there anything I can do in a 29g reef tank?

    The only snails I got were from reef cleaners. Do they usually just come in on snails or can they come in through other means like live rock?

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    They can come in on anything, but I would say snails and clams are the most common way.


    I have tried wrasses in the past with little to no noticeable results. If you have a clam than manual removal at night when they are most active, if no clams then I would just either do manual removal or go without snails for awhile. They seem to prefer the larger snails like turbos and not the burrowing snails as much.
