Purchased a lot of plants the last few weeks from different suppliers after I killed most of my plants while redoing my scape. There are now way too many snails!
Have never had an issue with snails in the past. Due to having discus, the tank is fed twice a day and any food that gets into the cracks of the rocks is pretty much snail heaven, so I don't see the population slowing down anytime soon.
There is a tank shutdown that is selling all 10 Clown Loaches about 3" big for $20. I know its never the right idea to get fish to take care of a problem, but I have always wanted Loaches, and the tank is a 225 Gallon, so there is room for it.
My question is, will 10 Clown Loaches take care of a snail problem?
Oh and I know they aren't the greatest Discus tank mates, but I think the Discus are going to go, too much work to keep happy in a community tank, takes the fun out of the hobby.
