Try Anentome helena snails, they are really good snail assassin.

Actually I don't recommend getting B. striata just to kill the snails. How bad is the infestation?

[barmby]

Thanks for replying. The infestation (Ramshorn snail) is very small as I still have one in my tank. btw, striata has not given me problem. They school and not shy. Further, they don't dig up plants

[avant]

oh. so you managed to get a school of them already ?

[barmby]

I meant...In the past, b. striata has not given me problem. They school and not shy

[avant]

Yup. They are rather docile compared to other Botia. If your current tank can support it, get a school of them again!

I'll let you know if I chance upon them.
