I've Got Snails

[SOOTY]

Hey all,

Gave my tank a water change last night, cleaned the glass and all of a sudden I have found snails crawling around.

How do I get rid of these??

Anything I can put in or any kind of fish that will eat them??

Thanks

Clown loach are good snail eaters, but be warned they can grow big

Tank is only a 16g hexagonal so dont think a clown loach would be the best option.

Would be nice to have one of them though.

One clown loach would be fine in that size tank but that's not the problem, the problem
you have is that clown loaches like to be in groups of 4 or more so i think you might have to treat it instead.

other small loaches like the zebra loach for instance can take care of a snail problem too, but they can be semi agressive at times.
