Re: [GSAS-Member] Small Disc Shaped Snails ( was Whoever was selling java ferns at the auction)



Hey there Laurel,

There was a discussion of these little buggers about 2-3 months ago on the
list.  Seems they showed up in a lot of folks tanks for the first time all
at the same time. (I always secretly suspected they were a conspiracy and
came into all of our tanks through the city tap water) No one has found a
solid way to get rid of them except for Pea Puffer.  You gotta get them
early with the Puffer though or they will lay too many eggs and the Puffer
won't ever catch up.

(For those of you without a dry sense of humor, I was kidding about the
conspiracy theory. Kinda)

Thanks for the snails!  I've been vigilant in pulling at least 1 out  
every week in hopes that I'd get them all, but they seem to keep  
coming back.  They're very small and disc shaped.  Any input on  
getting rid of them without ruining my tank for inverts in the future  
would be appreciated!
