Have you researched much on this topic? There's always lots of info on say acro but I haven't come across much on this. I'd be very interested on info like where they are harvested etc.

Actually, I have no idea. I am always reading about baby snails on the reef forum. It always seems to be the West Coasters who are doing it.
