[richpowell1989]

I live in the UK n The lfs I go to they come in pots n some sort of soil well u get told to take them out of that before u plant them so it wasn't that hard but I did find 2 snails but other than that nothing n Yh I love the way they look I have been waiting for ages for them lol

 

[Mouth-Brooder-Fanatic]

id take them out and give them a soak in cold water and vacuum the substrate if u havnt already done it. imo! eggs hatch quick!

 

[richpowell1989]

Yh they have been soaked already sorry didn't say that lol

 

[abrahamavelar]

I did have a problem a while ago but jus.did the lettuce thing n ain't since n I can't have a pleco in there I got some city cats but that's it

 

[abrahamavelar]

whats the lettuce thing????? and the pleco because he eats ur plants??????/

 

[richpowell1989]

If u leave a lettuce leave in ur tank over night the snails r attracted to it n in the morning u can lift out the leave n the snails will be all over it ur only ment to do it once but I did it two nights on the trot jus to make sure

 

[richpowell1989]

All you really need is one big leaf. Weigh it down with something so all the snails can reach it.

 

[abrahamavelar]
