Totally true. They're life savers!

Haven't seen my young Opae Ula for a long time. Don't know if they're still alive?

Watch they appear when you least expect it.

OK...

And this will be my next endeavour (if I can find it somewhere):

Microsword (Lilaeopsis brasiliensis)



I also wanted to try those two sea grass types. But apparently they need a lot of light and a deep enough (8 inches) substrate:

Turtle Grass (Thalassia testudinum)



Manatee Grass (Syringodium filiforme)

Yay! One of my babies! They're alive!

Super easily spooked. After the smallest vibration it went hiding again

Once again a baby snail is floating on the water surface. But the cool thing is that it actually eates the bacteria film. I observed it for a while. It seems to be quite normal. I always thaught they get trapped by the surface tension and have to be rescued. But they seem to do fine.

(Image quality is rather poor)

And I also have to say they are breeding very happily... you guys warned me

My nerites are too good at their job. Now all the algae film is gone Maybe NOW they will get rid of the hair algae.

Pull all the long bits out by hand and they should help a bit.
