snails eating plants

[Fishfiles1]

What kind of snails? They shouldn't as long as its healthy.

 

[Fishfiles1]

i dont remember , i think ranshorn, there small and shaped like @ and they get like the size of a pinky nail

 

[DAVIDFBT]

Ramshorns get to about the sizre of a quarter. You must have a large pinky nail. No, they won't eat your plants as long as the plants are alive.

hhhaha well, mine havent gotten that big yet, so thats why i say pinky, but thank you guys, now i dont have to worry

I think Columbian ramshorns are the ones that do. At least, that's what Rachel mentioned a few times aside from Pomacea canaliculata and a few other snails that do.

 

[Fishy_Fun]

Are they striped or golden?If so you most likely have a columbian ram and there mad for plants

 

[Fishfiles1]

brown, then like whitish

My experience with ramshorns has been that they don't eat most live healthy plants. The only exception I've noted is that they do seem to eat my frogbit. But they leave my other plants alone.
