 |
|
| Hi! I recently inherited a River Cooter that has a ton of snails in his tank. I've tried completely cleaning out his tank and the rocks in it, but they just keep coming back. I don't know what kind of snails they are...they're small and black. His previous owner put them in thinking Bo would eat them but he's shown no interest in them at all. (Even if I squish one up for him) Any suggestions to clear up the snail infestation? |

Don't they clean the glass, at least?
Funny he doesn't want to eat them -- even my fish liked eating mushed-snail-on-glass...
Can you let the tank dry out, boil the rocks and then refill it? |

| snails do help out to clean the tank. Maybe u can consider them to stay. Is there something wrong? or are there just too many?.....but yes u can boil the rocks. That would kill them tho.... |
