Aquarium Advice Addict
I'm thinking of getting a snail for my non-planted tank.
I'd like something that would browse on algae (green and brown), that would not reproductively take over the tank, and is big enough to be appreciated as a member of my FW community in its own right.
So far, I've narrowed my search to mystery snails and apple snails.
1 Are these the same type of snail? - there seems to be some confusion about this on the web.
2 Can I get only one? Do they need friends?
3 Will any of my fish attack or eat it? Will Angels and flagfish coexist peacefully with it?
4 Will they do well at my tank temp (80F)?
