Treating Tank With Snails

[omega59]

I have to treate my 10gal tank for body fungus, i use the API Fungus Cure product, they are powdered packets which make the water green. Do i have to remove my Mystery Snail or will he be safe with this medication??

What does it say in med instructions.
I would move him just to be on the safe side.

i agree with wilder. look at the back the biggest ingredient you have to look out for is copper, copper is deadly to snails.
move the snails to be safe

it says active ingredients: 3mg victoria b and 30mg acriflavine per packet.

 

[WILDER]

I would issolate the snail.

i placed him in a 1gal jar, however there is no heater or filter in there. today is the last day of treatment so i do a water change in the 10gal and place the snail back.

Some carbon filter media will also help remove the last traces of medication from the tank before putting your snail back.
