They look really neat plus supposedly they LOVE hair algae!

I had one...and it couldn't ever right itself. It eventually fell over one day when I wasn't watching...and died. Uggh.

I saw a bunch of them down at Coral Ranch when I was there yesterday.

Reeftopia has had those for a while. Not really anything special.

My regular astraeas do that.

I've had those on and off for years. They are sold to me as "star" snails.

Joel - you'll probably sell more if you call them "Ninja Star Snails". It's all about the marketing.

I'd buy one if they were labeled that.

Oh most definitely... Ninja stuff is a hot commodity... However once they were in your tank you probably wouldn't be able to find them??

Either that....or your other creatures would slowly and mysteriously ..... disappear
