What Are Them Little Snails On Plants

[Mike B]

Hi

just wanted to know what are the little snails that you see on the live plants are they anygood to keep or are they bad to have ?

 

[Revision17]

If they're eating your plants, then they're bad. If they're not eating them, then they're neutral to slightly good (unless you don't like the sight of snails).

It really depends on the species of snail.

i agree with revision 17, depends on species, apple snails are good beacause they lay eggs above water line so you are sure to only have the amount you see and you won't get over run

There is a pinned topic in the invert section to help identify which snails you have:
