JarrenB Posted July 10, 2010 Report Share Posted July 10, 2010 What kind of snails? ramshorn, trumpet, apple snail etc. With ramshorn snails: http://i33.tinypic.com/2q8984j.jpg you will see small clear blobs on the glass with tiny snails inside: http://s4.hubimg.com/u/1930711_f520.jpg The tiny snails will soon be seen on the glass along the water line of the tank. The will grow quickly and soon over run your tank, then you will be asking us how to get rid of them. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
