I bought some more live plants yesterday and apparently one of them was carrying either a snail or snails because I now see little snails in my tank. There aren't any fish in there, just plants and typical tank decor. What can I do to get rid of them? My tank isn't big enough for loaches unfortunately.

I have aquarium salt, will that kill them?

Can you just snatch them up and dispose of them?
I have read that if you put a peice of lettuce and/or likely zucchini they will attack it and then yo will have them in one place to dispose of-if you dont want the snails.

Hello mmm. I agree with Beth. Too, please don't use salt.
Best of luck.

I got the 3 out that I saw when I did a water change this morning. I didn't see any egg sacs anywhere, hopefully they didn't lay any yet. They were just tiny things, hardly 3 mm long.


EDIT: I'm planning on putting some lettuce in there to try and catch any that I may have missed. Thanks for the suggestions guys.
