June 20, 200719 yr comment_168833 All my rams horns snails have this whiteness on their shells. It almost like something is eating the shells as they are pitted. They are in a 20c tank insulated on all 4 side with natural light coming in the top. They are the only animal in the tank Any ideas? Report

June 20, 200719 yr Author comment_168866 I dont have any turtle blocks. Is there any thing else i can put in there? Ie food wise. Can i chuck a calcium tablet in? lol Report
June 20, 200719 yr comment_168952 I had a similar problem in a tank absolutely full of ramshorns, I was told to put in cushed oyster shell, did that and now have about 10% of the snails left, probably the best thing you can do is water changes in my opinion Report
June 20, 200719 yr comment_168972 ep, water changes, get your pH up to just over 7 and that'll get rid of the agressiveness of the water. Of course it does depend on the fish you have and what priority that you have. Report
