Assassin Snails

[mhancock]

I've got some assassin snails that are doing a great job, but was wondering as the other snails have pretty much gone now, will the assassins eat uneaten fish food - they won't eat each other will they?

Thanks,

yes they will eat any uneaten food. just a warning though, they do breed as well. i had 5 and ended up with a couple of dozen. as far as i know, none of them ate each other.

They also take a liking to algae wafers, i've had a few stuck to them before nibbling away, whilst my bottom dwellers are trying to get a mouthful

I'll try that, thanks!
