now hold on. snails are great for the aquarium both fresh and saltwater. they clean and eat that is it. the reason it got in was because i never put a gard on the overflow. but now i have one so there will be no more problems with that. i recomend snails. go for it. I may have lost one shrimp and a cheap small fish but it is ok. at least it was not my angle. lol

for freshwater you can go to petsmart and get trumpit snails for free if you buy a fish. for saltwater you want to go to Reefcleaners.org for Dwarf Cerith snails. both breed like crazy and if you get a lot of them you will have a 24/7 supply. that is what i do.
