Nassarius Vibex

[Morri]

How many Nassarius vibex do people use in there tank is there a ratio per square foot of sand?

I have 10 in my TL550 and my sand still has diatoms on it do I need more or do I need something else to sort it?

The Conch is in the TL 550 and a very happy bunny he is so I will not move him he was in my mental calcs

I will be only adding 1 or 2 more in the tl 550

Its just the CuC for the 18" cube 20 seemed way to many for me

I was thinking 10 in there will add 3 or 4 more each nass and cereiths and I like the idea of a Tuxedo urchin

Get the bumble bee Nassarius. Much prettier than the normal ones!

 

[seffieuk]

I love my tuxedo, but then we have had that conversation

Is he clumsy or does nt cause many problems ?

 

[seffieuk]

He doesn't cause any problems and my rocks are not secured together in any way, i love the guy. I sometimes hear a tapping and at first thought i had a mantis but then realised it was him with a shell stuck on his back, it was tapping against the side

1 x Yellow sea Cucumber
1 x tuxedo Urchin
3 x Ceriths
5 x nass
1 x Rainbow Acan
