Snails
Posted: Tue Jul 07, 2015 4:33 pmRight now I have a fish aquarium that is being overrun by tiny snails. I read that sliders can eat them. Is this true? Is it safe to take snails out of fish tank and put in turtle tank?

Posted: Tue Jul 28, 2015 5:46 pmI don't know what kind of snails they are. They are very tiny and I haven't been able to get rid of them in fish tank. From what I have been told, the eggs are microscopic. The tank and fish are rescued and the snails have been there since I got it.

My turtle has eaten them with no issues.

Posted: Thu Aug 06, 2015 10:16 pmI have snails in my filter. They got started by myself introducing them into the tank. Wild ones from a river behind my home. My res loves snails. They apparently don't last long in the tank because I never see them
