Salt did nothing to help me with my snails! I tried blanched lettuce and
others with no sucess. the ramshorns are now eating my hygropheilas, when I
reduce the food.

If you've got too many snails, and you'd like to rid yourself of
them....

Aquari-Sol....

I argued with someone who thought they knew everything, and sometimes
stubbornness is too much, so I can only give proof of what I know....

I started my tanks using AS, then stopped... got snails, asked
questions,
everyone said leave them... I did.. they grew... Ive got hundreds in one
tank... few in the other...

I was over feeding the bigger tank, but not the little tank... the
little
tank just got snails?!?!? not sure where from... but since I've started
using AS, no more snails.. and NO ALGAE!!!!

Just thought I'd share my thoughts....

For those of you who want to argue, take it somewhere else... This is
only
my observation, proof, and recorded effort to help others... Had-A-Snail
was
not used because it had a much higher concentration of Copper Sulfate,
therefore would harm plants...

Hi 350X_Rider

Tree weeks ago I had no snails. Now I have 100+ in my 360L (90g). I
haven't used
any chemical yet because I haven't had a chance to find out if there is
some
product on the market which does not harm plants. Aquarium salt seems a
too easy
solution. But why not give it a try? Next time I'm in a fish store I'll
get
some. How much did you dose? How long did it take you to eliminate the
snail
population?
