Default Snails? Reef wreckers??

So before I left for work, I give the tank a look and OMG, rocks have fallen, soft coral is crushed and everything is a mess....

Safe to assume, Large turbo snails wrecked the house??

I have 12 large snails in a 30g, I will be returning many to the store...Pissed....

Now that my tanks sparkles, thanks to the snails. Do i need this many snails? do most reef keepers keep snails?

i have about 25 snails, 12 being large turbo snails..

Thanks...

I wonder if i can just feed these snails to my 2yr old figure 8 puffer?

Wonder if he can handle snails of that size?? I will be taking some back or they all will just end up as puffer food....
