Sudden Snail infestation in FGT
hi , one of my FGT has a sudden infestation of snails , used to have some plants in there which i brought back from farm , threw them out few months back. recently saw all the snails every where.
Is there any solution to this problem or will i have to take out all the fishes and water and give the tank & filter a wash |

What kind of snails bro? I only experienced trumpet snails. I tried putting a piece of cucumber in the tank, then when a lot of snails gather on top, remove from tank. Repeated it quite a lot of times to get most of them.

Talking catfish supposedly eat snails. Most monster fish leave them alone as they are armoured and have spikes.
