hi im 2 weeks into a fishless cycle, the tank was planted prior to the cycle start. all seems to be going ok ,
until today when i noticed a snail on the glass :eek: even though all the plants were dipped in a 1/19 bleach ratio for 2 minuets prior to planting.
As i am currentley in the process of a fishless cycle, is there anything i could add to the tank to kill the snails without upseting the cycle before they start to increase in numbers.
 
Just pick them out of the tank. A lot of people like using the lettuce leaf method. Weigh down a peice of lettuce, leave it overnight, take it out along with the snails attached.
 
just kill them or take them out. this wont really hurt the cycle at all. you could even leave them in there, but they might die. if they do die you would have to take them out as soon as you notice them.
