Default 14 March 2011 - Snails Indentification

Just went to the ponds and start scooping. Scooped some snails and hopefully someone can tell me which one is what and which one is good for removing of hydra...

No need effort one. Just have a long net and then scoop away on the sides of all the ponds.

But hope someone can identify for me which one will work on getting rid of the pests in the tank...

A : I hv one in my tank, its do nothing, just eat and grow big.
B : I hv plenty, so much thou, I feed it to my Oscar, and my Oscar love it.
It breed like rabbit, but one think for sure, if u hv a lot of this "B" snails in tank,
the water is clean and clear. No alge. Well, these just my own opinion.

That's what I though too. But currently no plants in that hydra infested tank. I might even throw them in after I quarantine them enough to clear my algae

Don't say A do nothing la, they eat alot of plants and grow in the tank.

B is ramhorn snails where I have alot albino version in my tanks. As for C I seriously no idea liao. But ponds with these C snails got no algae!!! Same thing go to the A snails.
