In Reply to: Snails! Please help me! posted by tpuro on November 07, 2002 at 14:03:36:
:I have a 20g freshwater tank with 2 dwarf gouramis, 1 angelfish, 4 neon tetras, a catfish, and a pleco. The plants that I have are corkscrew val, amazon sword, watersprite, purple cabomba, and broad leaf ludwigia. I recently found a snail in my tank and removed him, but I think there may be more. My plants are looking very sick, and I'm virtually positive it's not the fish. Here are my questions:
:Do snails reproduce?
:Is there a solution I can use to kill the snails and put my other fish in an isolation tank for a while?
:Will the snails being the tank hurt my fish?
:What is the best way of removing these snails?
Don't kill them. I'd be willing to pay for them if you have a large amount of them. I have turtles that love snails. Email me if you still have them.
