Some snails gatecrashed in on plants we bought - not a problem as hubby had wanted snails anyway.
Snails multiplied and we began to think about a snail eating snail to help keep the population under control - but it was just a thought (also didn't want it to end up eating fish when it ran out of snails)
This morning there was a significant number of snails just laying on the gravel hanging out of their shells - not actually dead as they occassionally move as if trying to pull their shells back into place and some have moved around slowly but not far.
The water stats were ammonia and nitrIte barely above zero. All 7 danios are looking well, eating, swimming and pooing normally. Nothing new has been added to the tank.
Will the snails get eaten, or should I try to scoop them out, or will they recover?
