Hello fish fam!
Everyone knows the ongoing war against pest snails that travel in on plants…. And I’ve been having my assassin snail on overtime in bouncing him between my various infested tanks (should probably get one assassin snail per tank huh) and he’s definitely helped quite a bit in keeping their numbers down
But last night I noticed one of the pest snails had managed to grow quite big, so ofc I took pictures and I am now here to identify Mr. Pest.
He’s in my female tank, 20 gallons, and yeah one of my nirate snails has laid eggs all over my decorations but it’s a freshwater tank so the eggs -shouldn’t- hatch but who knows.
And the algae looks so much worse in the pictures. It did not look that bad in person but I’m gonna scrub it off anyway.

they can get pretty big too so the size isn't unusual
