Help for snails

[lesleyx]

Hi I have 2 baby apple snail's in my 55gallon. I bought a juvi angelfish who has taken an interest in them likes to nip them. Could I try both of them in my betta tank? I,ve got 2 baby rabbit snails & 3 baby mts in with him once the rabbits get bigger they join my adult ones in the big tank. Tank is 26litre, partial clean 40% 3 days. Your advice would be appreciated

As long as the beta tank has a tight lid so the snails won't escape and end up on your floor.
They should be fine in there until they heal,just remember they create a lot of waste so you might need to do an extra water change every week depending on what your feeding them.

Oh sorry I diddent see you do 40% water changes every 3 days.
You should be fine,if you want do 50% changes every 3 days

Depends on the betta's personality too...some may pick at the snails as well. Brigs are a bigger target than rabbits and MTS.

I,ll definitely keep an eye on them. He's had a Colombian snail in with him which is 2inches & didn't bother him, it went back in my big tank. If he bothers them I,ll just put them back, the angelfish seems to be leaving them alone at the moment so they,ll just stay in the big tank at the moment. Thanks for the input
