My aunt came through

As you may know my aunt was supposed to bring me some ramshorn snails for Christmas and she did. I got 14 adult ones and quickly put them in my ten gallon spare tank with a sponge filter. I am feeding them flake food and already have about 80 tiny amber colored snails crawling everywhere :smitten: . Is there anything else I should be feeding them? Btw this means I am one step closer to getting a puffer! :D

algae wafer... but there is an ingredient in them that should be avoided... I think it is Ethoxyquin. but "sevenyearnight" can tell you more.

blanched green veggies are also a fave ... spinach, cucumber etc...

If they are feeders.. find eggs. Do what you are doing and keep it up. It is really simple. Display snails take more work :/
