You will have to turn off your skimmer or it will co crazy. I think you really need an assistant.

I'm sure it just takes practice. maybe you won't have to do it again for a very long time with a good diet. valentini teeth don't grow very fast with a good diet, do they?

With the proper crunchy foods, it should never need it's teeth trimmed again.

Well i have lots of small snails for him. I am going to make a small fuge to breed them in. He is just hiding all day and only comes out when the light is off. He also totally ignores his food! When will he snap out of it!?

Probably when his lips stop hurting, so eating is comfortable again.

You can get clove oil at GNC store and you're in Cali im sure you can find one. It will cost you around$9-up
use cuticle nippers because is safer easier then a nail clipper. Trust me i know i trim my Sap before. Very scary. Last but not least dont over dose. I kill my other SAP by over dosing clove oil which i know im going to hell for this.
