I thought apple and mystery snails ate plants. Do yours and if they do how do you keep them from eating the plants?

callisto9 said:Once mine took care of itself, it never came back. I boiled, scrubbed and scrubbed again. After a week or so, it went away.
Botanica said:Excel kills it...pretty fast too. I used a syringe to squirt it directly onto the branch and the white crud was dead and gone within a few hours. . It will take a few days to get it all but at least I don't just have to just wait it out.

Sorry about your snail.
callisto9 said:I really should have re-thought the ramshorns. I plucked out about 30 of them this evening. Someone is coming to pick up a handful of them. The rest I'm putting in a jar. I don't know if I want to continue on with these - there are eggs everywhere!
The cories are still swimming all over the tank - super fast - back and forth. I wonder if they are stressed in the new tank...
Could u send me some?
callisto9 said:Yes, I can, but without a heat pack, I don't know if they'll make it. Anyone care to weigh in on that one?
I don't really know how we could do it and it is terribly cold hear in Canada!
callisto9 said:Plus shipping to Canada would be expensive. Do any of your LFS carry them? Will someone from eBay ship there?[/QUOTE
Idk but its ok I don't need em they just look really neat!
I noticed you said something about some of your plants not doing well. I'd like to know more so maybe I can help.
