 | snails and fry? |
niggit  Fish Addict Posts: 631 Kudos: 282 Votes: 0 Registered: 29-Jan-2003   | i'm just wondering if it would be safe to put a few snails in my killifish fry tank to eat any food that the fry miss. the fry are only 2 or 3 weeks old, so they are very small. the snails are the type that come in on aquatic plants, and are also very small (less than 1/4 inch) is this advisable? p.s. i am hoping to breed the snails so i have a "treat" supply for my Green spot puffer Last edited by niggit at 30-Oct-2004 18:50 Last edited by niggit at 30-Oct-2004 18:50 |
