[Wet Thumb Forum]-will anyone eat these snails

[candoh]

i have 2 cherry barbs 2 red tux platys and one albino rainbow shark.

I just bought 4 bunddles of some pant (i have forgotten the name) and they are covered in snails. i know how to kill them off but i was just wondering if any of the fish i have will eat them.

Are small – entertaining – and love to eat snails… but they like company so get two or three.

My Lepomis Gibbosus (Pumkin Seed) loves snails. You can also try an Oscar fish (a small one, of course!)

I have a Grass Shrimp that LOVES to chow down on snails. Definitely a show to watch as he works the snails out of the shells.

The only fish I know of that eat snails are Puffers & Clown loaches.

It's been my experience, rosy and gold barbs will eat snails.

Blue Gouramis (also Opaline or Gold Gouramis) will eat them if they get hungry enough. I have also noticed that there are no snails in the tank in which I keep my Yoyo (Pakistani) loaches. I think most loaches will eat snails.

Funny you should mention snails, I just noticed a snail "graveyard" behind a stand of some plants I have the other day. There were what seemed like hundreds of shells. Something in the tank is eating them!
