Irritating snail eggs!! Any solutions?

[kiv]

any senior bro know how to get rid of ramhorn snail eggs? and does this eggs hatched? Is there a way to stop snail from laying eggs? I've tried to brush it off but to no avail, it seem like these snails produce super glue. Please advice.

eggs hatch. to reduce eggs, reduce the number of snails. puffer fish may help. otherwise must manually remove them. Unless you do not mind trying chemical means.

The glue-like thing is unsightly after the eggs hatched. Tried scrubbing it off, it's like silicon, but does come off.

thanks bro, don't feel like using chemical, ever did so, it wept out all my shrimps. Does puffer fish eat eggs? Or theres chemical just for eggs?

if yours is a shrimp tank, try not to put puffer inside..

So there nothing much i can do, just have to wait for it to hatch and take it out then. Maybe someone out there has a best solution?

i've been crushing every baby snail i see with my planting tweezers...after about a week of doing it, today i finally don't see any snails on the walls. That and the shrimp i added are also probably outcompeting them for food

just bought a puffer keeps in 1ft tank, throw every snail in as food, quite enjoying

Having the same problem, good idea, will try it out with the tweezers.

by the way, do snails eat/attack baby shrimplets?

Most of aquarium snails graze on algae, diatoms, and detritus, some (e.g. Apple snails) will also eat plants.

However, there are some that are carnivores, but these are extremely rare.
