Snail In New Cycling Tank ?
Hi All,
Just discovered one of my small paper snails has hitchhiked on a piece of Live rock i moved to the new tank for the cycling process. Is it ok to leave him in there or do i need to catch and move the little bugger ?

cheers James

Those Stomatella snails are great for keeping algae at bay as they reproduce quite easily. Once they start going well you could trade or sell them for other animals.
