    I just read they sometimes can eat monti and Acro but never had any problem, except with the seriatopora

    I just want to know how to get them off of an aquarium wall.  I changed over my tank a while back and I couldn't get this guy off the wall.  He is still in there.  I think I could get him if he was on a rock but he is just stuck to the glass and when I try to grab or pull at the edges he sucks down into the glass.  I don't want to break the little guy.

    Take a clean razor blade, or a bladed scraper and slid it between the glass and the snail.
