snails



<< how does one eradicate snails from a tank that has been set up for about 6
 months and is doing very well?  i am afraid to upset the balance of the tank
 and the snails dont seem to be doing any real damage to the plants yet, but
 there are just so many of them!   aarrgghh! help!  someone said once that
 putting copper filings in the tank might help, but i dont want to poison the
 fish or plants.  right now the tank has about 250 various and sundry tetras
in
 it.  any suggestions?  robert  >>

My solution is a nice school of clown loaches.  They are nontoxic, pretty, and
very efficient snail killers.
