Exactly.. but as you said, it's a plus anyhow.
Mark dropped my snails off yesterday, they seem very hardy, and pretty active. They immidiatley began to dig themselves in the sand, and two others went for the glass. I had some diatmons on the sand before bed, and no ditamons on the sand this morning.

thanks mark! they are great. My barebottom tank was pretty much completely green with algae when I put them in last night, its about half gone this morning.

Glad to hear the snails are working out, they seem to be doing a good job in my tank too. I thinkI need to get more fish as I have too many snail eggs, it's like a buffet. LOL
Thanks guys,
Mark

just wondering if anyone had an update as to the effectiveness of these snails? I did hear that they like cooler waters, how as the survival of them been so far, what is the tank temp? Are they eating good amounts of algae/stirring the sand?

I've had 20 for about a month now.. I still have all 20, they laid eggs which gotten eaten, which is good for protein, and they are always active in my sand and glass. Not a single death! a must have
