Thanks for your prompt reply, what is the best way to kill them, it’s spreading all over rock and corals.

kalkwasser mixed with water to form a paste and smother them. Gel super glue also works

Is there any other way like kill this snail by adding beneficial fish or other type of reef safe chemicals?
