cichlid7 Posted May 28, 2008 Report Share Posted May 28, 2008 clown loaches or dwarf chain loaches will get rid of them from your tank but not sure how to get rid of them from the filter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitzy Posted May 28, 2008 Report Share Posted May 28, 2008 I think there is stuff called snail rid but it may not be good on ya fish unless they real hardly but if you had another tank to put your fish in it should be right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heir Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 give them to meeeeeeeeeeeeee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxjxa Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 give them to meeeeeeeeeeeeee And meeeeeeee! Kuhli loaches appear to eat the baby snails, so you oculd get a few of them if you don't want a snail-eating monster running rampant in your tank, it would at least stop them from breeding... then you could pick out the adults at your leisure (and then give them to me ).

Simian Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 I find that striata loaches are good snailers too, they don't get as big as Clowns and are more hardy, apparently they also don't mind being in smaller groups either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
