I brought some corydoras a month or two ago. I ended up with baby snails in the bag also. They have now grown a bit and must be breeding because ive counted 7 babies in my tank this morning. Are snails a goid edition or is it not good to have too many?

The only problem with having snails in your tank is due to there being a lot of them and it looking unsightly. Other than that they are good additions to the tank.

Their population will only explode if you're overfeeding your fish.

Thankyou for your reply.
I feed my fish every other day. Do you think this is ok?

It's fine. You could feed every day without issues as long as there isn't a lot of unbeaten food left laying around.
