Fish Fanatic
Wellllllllll, so i was checking out my tank last night and what do i notice sliding across the glass right in front of me but a TEEEEEENY TINY snail, complete with itty bitty shell and all. It is so cute, it also appeared outta nowhere, because i have no snails! So my question is, will this baby be alright in the tank for a while? I think he is so adorable, and hes less than half the size of a piece of tank gravel, maybe even smaller, do i have to worry about him and his relatives taking over my tank any time soon? Should i put down cucumber just to see how many there really are in there? i'm just full of questions! well thanks for your help in advance ~sar 

). they're a really neat and different little fish with tons of personality, nice change from the schooling fish or the basic tropical community fish.
same here I seem to gain snails in both my tanks (70lt and Nursery 10lt) and they definitely come from the new plants. My lfs said that the snails should be taken out as they could bring in disease. I've actually had to take out eggs which have been sticking to the side of the tank and to underside of plant leaves. I personally think it better to take them out - they do definitely multiply and the leaves do take a beating from them.
