| I just bought a bunch of plants and the store's plant tanks were practically overwhelmed with snails. Clerk cutie told me they would toss some in the Clown Loach tank and they would go nuts.
I tried dipping the plants but I still found a number of small blobs with white specks like that. Dip probably wasn't strong enough.
I removed all that I could find, but I'm sure I'll be inundated with them forever now.
My only hope at this point is that they'll starve since I just set up the tank the day before I got the plants, so there should be virtually no algae for them to eat.
I guess I wouldn't mind a few MTS, especially since there aren't any real algae eaters in my stock list, but snails just aren't really any interest to me.
About how long does it take for them to hatch?
So I know when to start looking for 'em. | |

| It took about 4 or 5 days. Snails are not bad in a SW tank, they are good to have. They act as a cleaning crew. Cleaning algae and detritus. | |

| We have those same white squiggly things on our tank. What are they? Should we leave them or remove them? Also, we have a bunch of very small little white dots. Kind of look like eggs? We have a 55 gallon salt water tank, coral, yellow tang, couple clown fish, firefish gobi, some snails, couple of emerald crabs. My husband tends the tank. I do not know anything about salt water fish care etc. We have recently had an algea bloom which we occasionally go through. I need to order new bulbs for our lights. Any information you can give me would be helpful! We have those white squiggly things in several places on the tank. Thanks! Heidi | |
