I recently had my betta in with my two mystery snails and my betta attacked the larger one.. I moved my betta to a different tank, obviously. But I was curious what other fish would be better to put with my snails?

If anyone could put together a list, or just name (in their opinion) the best fish to keep with snails it would be great!

I love my snails but I want to keep some movement going on in my tank too..

Any comments are greatly appreciated!

Most small peaceful fish would be fine with your snails. For specific recommendations, we need to know tank size, etc. Good job moving the beta!

I will be moving them to a 5g tank very soon.. (once it arrives in the mail) Probably, 2-3? maybe four plastic plants, gravel substrate, heater, filter.. etc. Basic stuff I suppose..

I don't mind if they are larger fish or smaller fish, I just.. want them to be pretty. Heh, or unique? I like a tropical feel but freshwater.

A couple male guppies would be colorful and active, and should do well in a 5.
