With aptasia that will make it worse for you. They release millions of little spores when you do that.

A needle most times don't work because the snail spirals it's shell, your needle won't make it through the first spiral, trust me I've tried... Just glue the opening or pull the rock out and break the shell off and shuck the sucker like oysters!

thats what I was told, but this was a few months back when my tank was first cycling, havent had any since except one that came with a frag, but I think I got lucky cause I could have cause a huge problem, plus when I stabbed them they were closed up completely, but as said I think I just got some look
