Yikes, too many Nassarius Snails!!

Post by PufferMe! »

Not sure I spelled that right, but I bought 263 of these on ebay. Recommended 4-5 per gallon. My 75 gallon now looks like a snail tank and not a fish tank.

I'm planning on unloading some on Craigslist, but want to get other opinions. Can't a number of snails do as much harm to a bio-load, than be helpful?

Of course Griff, my GSP did get at least a couple, as his belly was huge. As I put them in many of were on their backs and were easy pickin'.
