lol@ jager bomb...Did you read the dose rate table for each proof of vodka?

Works for me ;D http://reefkeeping.com/issues/2008-08/nftt/index.php

Really! I don't feel like getting "swimmers' itch" now or anytime ;D

I guess people will do anything to make a buck.. but i got these for free and again they do a really good job of keeping the sand clean and moving. When im ready to finish my hardscaping and add more corals i might take them out after reading that

This is also true!... LOL it was late last night when i was on here and vodka dosing myself ;D

That's up to you and water Parameters... some people do it weekly some bi weekly some don't do any for months I have read here on NJRC.. Here's some Calculators on the left side to help you decide http://reefcentral.com/

LOL

A very informative read and thank you!..They seem to be the same ones I have but I got mine from Great Bay.. I have had them in my tank since mid july of this year and so far everything seems to be ok.. They seem to like to be in the sand at day and all over the glass at night.. never seen them...

Your welcome.. We have a real small inlet where I live and that's where I found them in abundance but remember i got them in the summer.. I don't know if they are still out but it worth a trip to the shore :)

Im sure These are Onyx Nassarius Snails (Mud snails) I caught them in great bay and they all bury.. In fact you can see a few in the sand against the glass and as you said... :Great sand sifters and voracious eaters of detritus" :)

Just a idea but how about trying to move the tank when doing a 50% WC make thing 50% easier

lol.. I was just busting chops ;D I belong to that other BB too ;)

Hey Bob.. I think I have 2 or three of them when i picked them up from the bay the same time i caught the Onyx .. My neighbor has a local 180gl tank and has 100's of them.. he was the one who told me about them when i first started the hobby.. hey the price was right at the time ;D

Really!.. you might be better off and do some plumbing and set the skimmer under the table..if the pump can handle the head loss and still run the skimmer efficiently.. If not efficient you will have to upgrade the pump.. I know it's a bit late now but you had fresh water before and should have...

I have about 20 of them in my 40gl and they really do a good job of keeping the sand clean and moving.. Anyone else use them?

I started a few weeks ago 1 ml( 80 proof) per 20gl and my tank seems to be free of algae now
