livingart Posted July 10, 2014 Report Share Posted July 10, 2014 Loaches maybe your option as others can be fin nippers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverdollarboy2 Posted July 10, 2014 Report Share Posted July 10, 2014 Yoyo loaches may work depending on your tank size. Puffers are very nippy and bumblebees often starve as they need to have food put right infront of them.Bumblebees will only thrive in brackish water. You could try squishing the snails and feeding them to the other fish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camtang Posted July 10, 2014 Report Share Posted July 10, 2014 Loaches and corys are apparntly do not work so well. The loaches tend to bully and starve corys. None of that is from first hand experience, just word of mouth learning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
