wellmax Posted May 5, 2010 Report Share Posted May 5, 2010 Hi all, is there a safe way of removing snails from a tank without removing the fish and plants????? Regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DennisP Posted May 5, 2010 Report Share Posted May 5, 2010 There is a bunch of chemicals you can put in there... Someone else can tell you. But since their shells are made out of ...calcium?... but its alkaline/basic... so if you make the water more acidic they will have trouble growing and the small ones wont survive. Also loaches will eat them etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanmin4304 Posted May 5, 2010 Report Share Posted May 5, 2010 Snail rid is copper sulphate and the snails are generally more sensitive to copper than the fish. However, some fish are sensitive to copper also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
