Snails, snails, snails!!!!

[jmc2005]

Having finally got to the stage where tank is fully cycled and all fish are healthy:
4 harlequins
3 zebra danios
3 platys
1 pleco

I now find that I have tiny snails all over the place. Getting sick of picking out as many as I can every day. Lettuce trick not too successful. Was thinking of getting fish that will eat the suckers. somebody said to get 2 clown loaches. Will they eat the snails and more importantly will they be ok with the above fish (especially my lovely pleco).

Any advice appreciated

They will eat snail, but they like to be housed in groups and also in a large tank as some will grow large..

what size tank do you have?

Its a 180litre tank. Any ideas on other 'friendly' snail eating fish.

Any Botia will eat snails. Don't get a Skunk Loach, they have a nasty personality.

Yeah, even I, the loach loving person, got rid of the 4 skunk loaches I had because they ticked me off so much
