Snails...

Hi,

It seems some snails have managed to smuggle their way into my tank on some plants and have now breeded to the extent that they are everywhere.

I tried putting some cucumber in, apparently they should crawl over to it to eat then i can just fish the cucumber out. they didnt take the bait.

What now, how do i get these little b@$t@rd$ out of my tank?!

The main thing i find is not to over feed the fish, when i over feed the fish the snails multiply at an alarming rate, i feed my fish 3-4 times a week= very few snails, after that manual removal is easiest i find, with planted tanks its difficult to remain snail free, i dont mind a few, live and let live.
