    My small jug was infested with baby pond snails.
    I need to remove them as they not only eat up algae, shrimp foods and also the molt from the shrimp.
    Kind of hate it, they are hermaphroditic and produce tons of baby from just 1 snail.

    I was too lazy to pick them up by one by one and hence I use my index finger to crush them 1 by 1.
    I did not removed the bodies as well as I know that my Cherry Shrimp will come and feast on them and they did.
    I assumed that is okay as the snail shell is full of calcium.

    So, is crushed snail a bad diet for shrimp?

    By the way, are some snail able to breed without
