    Hi people! Does anyone know what type of snail is this? This snail has been in my tetra tank for quite awhile and I have this type of snail in various sizes. They spawned like mad! I do have 3 Nerite snails in my tank. So do anyone know what is this snail?

    I don't know the name but they're extremely common as hitchhikers on plants. They lay eggs that look like several white dots in a blob of "phelgm". I prefer these over the flat round ones or MTS that absolutely explode in population.

    Keep a small clown loach and it will eat up all the snails in a few days.

    Small clown loach? I thought they can grow to as big as 30cm? I don’t think it will fit my 2ft tank though.

    Thanks! They really populate very fast!

    I think I see shrimps in your tank, clown loach will eat up your shrimps also, you might want to move your shrimps out before introducing the clown loach
