lol.. well its just when people have small tanks or whatever, and they ask what to get everyone suggests snails or shrimp or bottom dwellers..and i never understand why, because shrimp and snails dont go swimming around, darting around the tank..they just sit there or suck on the glass. and like people are saying, the bottom dwellers are always hiding.
my reasons why i dont like the said fish:
snails are slimey and nasty lol
shrimp, i'd have them actually its just they seem boring and unactive.
bottom dwellers i hate cause they all look like slugs or lump of poop, and i hate catfish.
