Sulawesi Snails

[antjoey1122]

Saw a bunch of sulawesi snails in THAT aquarium (Singapore LFS), any ideas are they plants eaters or algae eaters or muck eater?

They eat practically everything.

Not sure about them eating everything, but it depends on the sulawesi snail species you're getting. From what I've heard, they have a voracious appetite for all java ferns(be it lance, windelof or staghorn etc.) and are very vulnerable when eating. They may not eat other plants, but do read up more on them before getting any. Will eat some algae and rotting plant bits probably, like all snails.

OK.. Then I'll not get them. So far I've happy with my nerites and mystery.
