I have tons of little round white snails that only come out at night. Are they a problem? If so how do i get rid of them?

look at my post in the Reef Tank Plagues thread... I wonder if they are the same thing I have? Are they on a half-shell?

NO. The snails in my tank are tiny little white snails little larger than the head of a push pin, seem to only come out after I turn the lights off, at first I didn't mind them but now there are so many I think I need to do something about them. Too small to pick out I think.

I have them too. I just figured that my snails had......you know.....and those were the babies.

If you're referring to collonista snails, they are reef safe. They are actually really good cleaners. My 20g long has hundreds of them.

Well I guess I will leave them be then.

Yea I've got hundreds or thousands of them in my 90. Does everyone still have them?
