I have some small spots that have some hair algae. Gotta hit the sandbed better with the vacuum. I've been kinda lazy with it the last month been busy with working and shit. I do my water changes every week but I haven't been a good maid with the sand bed. 1 Quote Link to comment
DSFIRSTSLTWATER Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 I have to say that it looks good now that it's maturing. I like the fact it doesn't look sterile though. 1 Quote Link to comment

Yeah, I haven't been able to support stomatella snails in my current tanks either. I'm pretty sure it's due to lack of food. The main reason I scrape the glass is to remove the spirorbid worms which tend to build up. I scrape the glass maybe once a month (sometimes not even that much). 1 Quote Link to comment

Maybe that's what happened to them..I had them as hitch hikers on my rock when I set my tank up in march. It was awesome to watch them grow from the size of a pen tip to the size of a quater. 2 Quote Link to comment
StinkyBunny Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 my tanks definitely have the food for them, lol. I keep the nitrates about 10ish to keep a good biofilm for them and the starfish. 2 Quote Link to comment

I guess it’s a good problem to have..... for me, not the limpets. 2 Quote Link to comment

Not sure if it’s lack of food or The Star Lord eating them at night. Try to check on them at night time. I have never introduced any to my tank and there must be at least a dozen babies 1/8-1/4” in size. Don’t see any during a day tho. But they sure are super active at night. 1 Quote Link to comment

You think it’s a work of skilled ninja that hunts them down one by one or limited food source to support large population? 1 1 Quote Link to comment
