Snails? I didn't order any!
I've just realized that the little brown dots that have been appearing on my gravel are snails. The answer became evident when the the little specks started moving around on the sides of the tank itself. Now that I know what I'm looking at, I see that they're everwhere; on my decorations, my lovely Amazon swordplants, even my heater tube and filter stem. The thing is, I never bought any snails, & even though I wouldn't mind a couple to possibly help with eating some excess foods or even a little "window cleaning" I don't think I need/want hundreds in my tank. Anyway does anybody have an idea where they came from/or how they got into my tank And even more important how to get rid of them without dangerous poisons, or having to completely break down my tank?
I'm all snails - I mean I'm all ears.
