dude you got a snail problem

although those snails can be aesthetically unpleasing, they actually help quite a bit in predator tanks as they quickly consume uneaten food and detritus. if they do become a problem (i.e. clogging filters, etc) i have often solved this problem with use of a lungfish...pretty much any species will keep them under control or wipe them out--
