Well, someone gave me a female betta as a present, and since it was unplanned and I lacked another tank, I tried the betta in my five gallon, currently home to one Golden Apple snail. The snail was with a betta before and it never gave her any trouble. Well, they couldn't have been together five minutes and this damn betta bit off half of one of the snail's feelers and ate it :angry: and that was AFTER I fed her to near-bursting allready.
So... will the feeler grow back? If not, will the snail be ok? Do I have to worry about infection, and if yes, is there any way to treat it? :/

One of mine suffered the same by a Betta, too. Grew back within a couple weeks without me having to do anything for it.
