I would like to put a Ramshorn snail in my 2.5g Betta tank. Its planted and filtered. Is this ok?
 
Nevermind, I think Bettas eat Ramshorn snails...
 
No they wont. I used to have a beautiful 2g hex with ramshorns and betta and had no issues. Then my betta died :( and when cleaning it found a crack. Luvd that tank....

yup bettas eat them and they reproduce like bunnies! enough will survive his feeding on them to overpopulate your tank.

grab a few that he cannot eat..something that does not fit in his mouth and toss them in
They only eat the little babies that hatch out...witch is not a bad thing with ramshorns


erm i must say though not all bettas have a taste for snails.
 
Mine had 0 intrest in them....
