[Dorkhedeos]

well, you still havent answered the main question, are they pest snails?

 

[bettas]

what is pest snails

 

[annka5]

Snails which are a pest...eat your plants, look unsightly, are not wanted.
If you want to keep them, I'd say just leave them in the tank. chances of you removing them without squishing them by accident are not good; beeter to take the risk with the pump.

 

[bettas]

ok now there all right for now my cw tank is very allgae can i put one in there

 

[yvez9]

sure, but let me warn you they breed like crazy
one week you have one, the next you have 25, the week after 200, ... and so on. unless you have snail eating fish but there aren't any good snail control fish for a 15 g

i don't know of any

KILL 'EM ALL (yes, yes, I know it's a Metallica album). Get rid of them while you can! I've been trying to be rid of these unsighly poo-machines for the past 6 months, when I get rid of them they pop right back up in a week!

 

[bettas]

no i wont get rif of them i have a special thing that kills them

yes but he is only a few weeks old so he wont breed yet

 

[Dorkhedeos]

that made no sense to me
