Hello MFK :)

I have a problem with snails - there is more and more of them...assassin snails cant follow anymore, neither my manual pickup, botia not interested in them...

I want a chemical as last chance but i wanna know if there are any probs with scaleless fishes and fishes with slime coat?

Thank for replies :)

I found one single male pea puffer to be my answer. Almost Cleared an entire 25g densely planted of an MTS outbreak. Even though they're still there in a limited population, I never see them and they are kept under check and the puffer feeds himself. I'd try this or snail traps first.

So puffers are no go :/

D.a.m.n... Wherever i read about products against snails i also read its best to avoid using it in tanks where scaleless fishes are swimming..
Seems i'll need to continue with traps..atleast 3 of them and feed fishes every second or third day..
