We all know dwarf ceriths will successfully spawn and navigate life through protein skimmers and the such, somehow surviving the odds. What other snails have you been successful with?

I've had two Astrea survive before. One day, I just saw the little guy cruising by. He started out the size of a rice grain and grew to about a quarter in a year.

I have Trochus Snails that breed. I have them from about 1/8 inch up

Trochus snails seem to breed quite frequently. I have a couple babies that survived. I also have some strombus snails that I just got, hopefully they'll start to reproduce soon.

I've never had Astrea snails breed successfully in my tank before. Just Cerith snails, Collonista snails and Trochus snails. I have seen both the smaller Nassarius vibex snails and the larger Tongan variety lay eggs, but nothing ever panned out.
