snails are all gone
I was looking at my aquarium today and noticed that there are no snails left in it. A month ago there were tons of them and now I can't find one. All I've done recently is add some more plants and have been using fertilizers more often then I use to.
Is that weird? |

Re: snails are all gone
What fish do you have? and what kind of snails are they? MTS burrow under the sand and you may not see them very often

Re: snails are all gone
Lol. If you figure out how you managed to make a tank full of snails go snailless in less than a month, write a book cuz that would be a best seller! :D
Another possiblity,Less or no food for snails and their population will diminish. (ie are you feeding less? )

Re: snails are all gone
More than likely they have burrowed under the substrate.

Re: snails are all gone
I think they were pond snails and they were always all over everything so I don't see how they have all could have burrowed. I don't have any fish that would eat them. Just some Rasboras, Corys and Ottos.
