[APD] Re: limpets (piaba)



I've had freshwater limpets in my tanks a number of times. Much smaller than
salt water limpets, (they are not related). They can help graze algae but
not nearly as much as ramshorns. If you don't like their appearance simply
use a magnetic scraper to wipe them off. They can't retract into their
shells like normal snails so they are easy targets for fish.

regards

Stephan
