Added two small synos (don't know species will add pics in a few) a few weeks ago. They engulf nls sinking pellets and have grown quite fast. I'm wondering if they would eat mts as I have not seen the dozens that I normally do at lights out. No shells or anything? Kinda odd? Anyways any imput is appreciated thanks!!

IMHO they may have but it would seem strange not to see any empty shells. Being bottom dwelling opportunists I would say so. Look harder and you may spot some shells as the Synos could have taken them to a particular spot and eaten your MTS behind some aquascaping. Also the MTS may have buried themselves deeper in the substrate sensing the Synos or maybe the environment has gotten better with catfish in and they have dug themselves in deeper!

Yeah its funny. They have grown quick so maybe they have been feasting!! Either way its not a problem. Don't mind the snailes. My sand has stayed extremely clean. Ill keep an eye out for sure
