Think of it this way.... The nastier it is, the better your skimmer is working .... And that's a good thing

I'm fine with skimmer goo, bristle worms and even the 3 ft worm.....but if I ever have to remove another dead turbo snail before the contents have been cleaned out?...... I'm quitting the hobby

+1, also applies to half dead clams & goopy nems *vomit*.

Well I guess there are worse things than skimmer goo, no dead rotting snails or clams or other funky worms in my experience yet, that's what I have to look forward to?? Oh my....

I lost a turbo snail in my first tank, I took him out the day AFTER garbage day. 6 days later i nearly died opening the garbage can again, worst smell ever.
