snails - now you see them, now you don't
 

A week or so ago, I posted a quick note asking for help with a snail bloom
in my tank. I came home one night with tons of the little things, 2 days
later they all dissapeared as fast as they came. I didn't do a thing to the
tank, any ideas what happened?

Regards,

Phil..

a) Most likely, your fish ate them.
b) Snail-specific disease outbreak exacerbated by population explosion.
c) They crawled out of the tank and they're between your mattress and box
spring waiting for you to turn out the lights...

I vote for c, but a is most likely. Another possibility, or everyday occurance
in my tank, is that they are all in the canister filter living the good life
with lots of food and no preditors.

Every night, the snails turn on your computer to see what you are doing.
They read your post and they KNOW... They know you want to get rid of them.
They have dosed all the food in your house with had-a-person and are
waiting for you to perish before assuming control of your finances and
building a snail-operated robotic replacement of you.

Greetings, Invertebrate-type Life Forms:

The entity specifying itself "Donovan" is correct. We are monitoring your
communications and evaluating your capabilities and intentions. For weeks,
we have been harvesting this newsgroup for subject headers and e-mail
addresses related to our welfare. We are currently debating whether to a)
deprive you of nourishment, b) slather you in toxic chemical agents, or c)
introduce predators.

Yours truly,
The Snails
