Hi Guys,
I have a problem and I am trying to deal with it humanely. Recently, I noticed a small snail in my tank that I hadn't purchased. Come to find out it is a Rams' horn snail and in a week I have identified three others in the tank. I have done my research on the snails and have heard that they are quite the pests. I currently have 4 in my tank and I would like to prevent from having anymore. Is there a peaceful community fish that will eat snail eggs? I don't want a fish that will eat the snails because I have a couple of mystery snails that we love in the tank. What should I do? Try to control the population with something that will eat the eggs? Or just do the deed and remove the Ram's horns before it is too late?
