Snails and Clown Loaches
How do you make your clown loaches eat snails? I have 5 in a 280L aquarium,
and have heaps of ramshorns snail that might have come in with a plant (although all were bleached) or fish; although they seem happy enough, they don't seem to take any interest in snails (as in eating them), contrary to popular wisdom. Cheers, Poe |

Don't feed 'em for a few days - they'll get very interested! Also, squash a few snails agains the glass - once the get the taste for them they will clean house very quickly. I. |

Try to not feed your loaches and squish a few of the snails on the side
of the tank. They should get the idea very soon. Vicki |

whatever y ou feed them.
