a couple of days ago i noticed a few baby snails on my glass. tonight i was just looking at my tank and noticed a ton all over everything under the moonlights. i have no idea what kind of snails they are as i have never bought (came with the tanks) or been very interested in any of them. any info would be great.

I used to have about 10,000 in my tank, and in the morning they would cover the glass.

so they are safe or should i get a puffer?
also i have a oceanic half cylinder tank and have a hard time cleaning the glass, what do you use?

Well if it's not a reef you can get a wrasse; I guess a puffer would work too. It will cause a nutrients spike as they all are eaten.

After the lights went on, mine would go away.
