Hey all. I'm trying to think of something that can help get rid of any extra waste in my 125. Just swapped over to goldfish. It's a mix of baby fancies so they will be fed well to grow into big fat lards buahaha.
I know I have seen these snails a few times at the lfs.... So with that said:
- Lowest temp to keep these snails? There is a good chance the tank might get below 50° since it's on the patio. I have heard they can overwinter fine but is this true?
-Will goldfish eat them once they get full size? (10"+ goldies eventually.)
-Do they only eat diatoms or other fluffy algae? What about bba? The tank gets greenspot algae. I am not currently running the lights to save on my power bill.
-Any parameters I will need to consider? Like overly sensitive to nitrates?
Hmmm.
