Snails or pleco with multies?

[dvanv]

Could I add snails or a pleco with my 4 multies?

MTS maybe. They have very few predators and considering their shell structure, they can survive in the shellie tank well.

I use snails in all of my small shellie setups and is what works for me..

I think dvanv is talking about live snails, Pittbull. Are you talking about that too?

 

[Pittbull]

Yep, I use those MTS snails as well and i def want some nerites here soon but waiting til spring to order them..

hmm escargot is good..

What size tank?

I second that MTS should be fine. I have a bunch in my mbuna tank and they seem to be doing well Though i know my red zebra has gotten a taste for them and has gotten a few

What size tank is this?

I tried a BN plec and it didn't work out. It was immediately harassed.

MTS may work but it depends on the tank size. Although they are small they can quickly populate a tank. Considering your multies will do the same, you may want to pass.
