Too many snails!!!!

Don't worry! When you add snails it looks nasty, but they all disperse, go in the sand, the rocks etc. and then you won't even notice them anymore!

 

Good! man it's great to have some fellow reefers to talk to when confused!

 

Your funny I received twice that for my 26g! If you got hermits you'll probably be ordering more again soon-lol.

 

Most will be hiding under the sand out of view, here in a bit.

 

in a few days you will be wondering where all your snails are. lol. those little guys will hide everywhere. I have about 160 ceriths in a 28g nano cube. You will be just fine.

 

lol, won't be surprised if you're ordering more snails, other species, soon!

 

lol i could use some also. I have a biocube 29g hqi too. right now I only got 5 scarlet hermits. lol, all those snails.. sure does look funny.

 

same thing happened to me. ordered 30, got like 90. Proved to be a blessing in disguise though!

 

I hear reef cleaners is good about throwing in tons of extras when making orders. Some people recommend ordering about half of what you really need.

 

John from reef cleaners is the man! Much like you I ordered his recommended amount of dwarf ceriths (30 for my 46g) and ended up with close to 120. I took about a 1/4 of them and put them in my frag tank. I also got like 10 nerites that are the size of large gumballs= ridiculous cleaning power!

The funniest thing was when the lights went out the first day, all of the dwarf ceriths started climbing up my front glass driectly from where I dumped them in a pile. Imagine 120 tiny snails climbing up a 4" wide section of glass. It looked like some kind of great snail migration!
