Ramshorn snails vs. Mts

Post by Smitty23 »

Will mts snails kill ramshorn snails? Or vice versa? My ramshorn breeding tank for my fahaka is being overrun by mts. I'm wondering if I should buy 3 or 4 assassins and start over any suggestions?

They won't hurt the others.

Thanks, I can't seem to get my fahaka to actually eat the shell of muscles on the half shell nor will it eat massive carnivore pellets. He's a pricey eater!

When they feed on the half shell, they scrape their teeth on the shell to get the meat out.
