hey, mts are nocturnal, right? i wonder if i should find some for the 10g so they can clean the algae at night when the puffers sleep lol

I have MTS snails with my Dp's. Grumpy old Git when he still was alive learned how to suck them out of their shell from my Clownbotia's. With me they come out of the sand at night so he had midnight snacks.

In my Clowntank i only have very tiny ones because they need to breed fast because of the Clowns. Only in their pumps i found bigger ones.
