    What snail is this?

    Don't think so :\ Needs to have white flecks. I might just give up and report back later if it does anything bad :P

    What snail is this?

    Found him! He was on the glass... makes me think he might be safe. Sorry, for some reason my camera wasn't focusing very well this morning.

    What snail is this?

    Actually looking at the shells a little more closely, I would say it is closer to the one Mike posted (the shell itself), but still not the same. It is MUCH like this one that someone else has up online, if not the same species...

    What snail is this?

    I would have the say the shell type looks more like the conch than it does that one. That one is also found in Australia, and not much for the marine trade comes out of there because of their rigorous laws surrounding the trade.

    What snail is this?

    Here's another photo I took last night before I left my office. I have no idea where it is at the moment.

    What snail is this?

    No, I don't use any hermits, but I will use emeralds in the future. They're much better than hermits :)

    What snail is this?

    Haha, so I got ceriths today from two different places. This is a 'cerith' from the other place... Isn't he cute? Too bad I don't want hermits in my tank :P

    What snail is this?

    Nope, snails cannot change shells, they secrete their own calcium carbonate shell and grow with it. A snail out of its shell is a dead snail. It is definitely a very bright red and isn't influenced by the background actinics. Check out the photo of the red conch I posted - the body looks just...

    What snail is this?

    From the pictures I've been looking at... yours sounds like it might have been a red footed snail. I found this very similar picture of mine...

    What snail is this?

    No black on this one... the body is red with white flecks.

    What snail is this?

    Well it's certainly not the same species of cerith... wrong shell type, wrong color, etc. I wouldn't guess cerith but then I don't know all the different types.. if there are even different types :confused: Snails don't upgrade their shells :P And I don't keep hermits, so no extra shells needed.

    What snail is this?

    Came with my '20 cerith snails'. Yes, it has a red foot.

    Will this light work for SPS?

    I did, but with full intention on selling the light! Deduct the price of the light, and to get the set up I wanted (drilled and high quality rimless style), this was a good deal. It wasn't really for me though, Greg had been wanting one for awhile so I surprised him with this one =D I do have...

    Will this light work for SPS?

    Nice... I love the look of these fans. Btw - do you think the extra koralias are necessary? Maybe just one? It's a pretty tiny tank!

    Will this light work for SPS?

    Thanks for the suggestions Mark... I already ordered the MH though :\ As far as skimmers go... it's the Elos Mini, so I hope the skimmer with it is good :P

    Will this light work for SPS?

    Yeah, they are :( I'll try fans first, thanks :)

    Will this light work for SPS?

    Yay, I did manage to find the light I wanted, the 150 watt ocean light by aqua medic. I was thinking about the ambient temperature being at 75F or lower... and I think that might be hard to obtain during the summer. As today is one of the hot days, and my fan is going full blast, it still must...

    Will this light work for SPS?

    Darn, well apparently they discontinued the 150 watt version. I think 250 watts is overkill (literally). Any other suggestions on lights for this type of tank?

    Will this light work for SPS?

    I have a 15 3/4" tall ~20G tank that I want to keep SPS and perhaps a clam in (sand bed 1 1/2" deep). I was thinking about doing the 150 watt Aqua Medic Ocean Light. I am concerned about heating, and this one has an external ballast so that's a plus... Do you think this will work? Am I still...

    Clarkii clowns for free

    Congrats on keeping it over a year, first of all :) It does sound like an A. commerson - they're fairly common in Hawaii.
