that's extremely odd... i have had both pond and trumpet trumpet snails
in with apistos and kribs. never noticed any "carnage". spawns have
always been of normally reported size. i even keep a few large "mystery"
snails
in my larger tanks. i've seen the fry pick at the snail's shell when it
inadvertantly
cruises through the swarm.
where did you read this?
