They came as eggs with plants I bought months ago. I honestly don’t have a problem with them but over the week their population EXPLODED. They are everywhere and covering almost the entire floor. I understand I may need to get rid of them but they are still are live beings and I dont want to be inhuman. How do I get rid of them?

    What do you do with the snails you remove from the tank? I am not comfortable with the idea of just leaving them to die.

      Honestly I just threw them in to the garden. You could remove them from the tank and then use a snail treatment, freeze them or use them as food for a loach or puffer.

      I have snails in my shrimp tank and they can be controlled but also they can really take over so make sure you deal with them either way.
