 | bioload of mts |
jenbabe256  Big Fish Posts: 316 Kudos: 312 Votes: 10 Registered: 21-Jul-2004   | I was just wondering what the addition of MTS does to the bioload of a tank. I wouldn't imagine that they would contribute much, but I wanted to make sure. Thanks Jen |

They multiply on their own and depending on your set up may multiply quite quickly  .Don't let it hold you back from getting them though....in a planted tank they shouldn't cause much harm bioload wise. ^_^  [link=Contest Rules]http://www.fishprofiles.com/files/forums/Aquascaping/44382.html?200412022138" style="COLOR: #EB4288[/link]  |

Racso Mega Fish Some Assembly Required Posts: 1163 Kudos: 1442 Votes: 35 Registered: 19-Feb-2002   | ok, so 5 snails = 1" of fish... but 5 snails of what size? The biggest MTS I've seen had a 1 inch shell.... I can imagine that half inchers are less (as it is with fish) and most MTS i see are about half an inch at most. |
