Hi,
I have a 20 gallon planted tank with 4 brilliant rasboras and a ton of ivory snails. I had 4 full grown snails which layed a bunch of eggs that hatched before I found them. I had about fifty of the little snails crawling around my tank. I knew that was too many so I started feeding some of them to my crayfish, and I have thrown about a dozen into my goldfish tank. I want to keep as many as I can, I still have about 30, but I don't know how many I can put in a 20 gallon tank.
So basically my question is how many apple snails can I comfortably keep in a 20 gallon tank?
Also if I max out on snails, will there be enough stuff left to eat if I wanted to get a plecostamus or some ghost shrimp?
Thanks, Seth .
