What if you have nerite snails that you want to keep ?
how do you know which fish will eat what snails or
to be on the safe side make a diy snail trap & use
green beans as bait for them? that's what I have &
without fail I catch 30-50 on each green bean I put
in a 75 gal aquarium. I put like 4-6 green beans in
different areas in the tank & it draws them to it.
nice video, but a slight correction: Clea Helena (Assassin Snail) will eat Maximum 0.54 snails per day, but the average is 0.357 Snails a day according to University Study, however when you google this you almost everywhere get the "they eat 1-3 snails a day" which is incorrect. the real number would be more like: Assassin snails eat on average 2.5 - 3.5 snails a week
These snail eating fish are going to help us by eating snail eggs, which is perfect to lower the population of snails in our fish tank. Snails often sneak into aquariums and plants, which is not very appealing. Freshwater snails usually consume fish eggs and aquarium plants, which is a big concern. YoYo Loach is an amazing and awesome-looking tropical fish that can help combat any snails. They are active schooling fish, which is a great option for our tank. Thank you so much for doing this video.
Great list and information, thanks! I prefer to see a snail outbreak as a sign that I am feeding too much or too often. Reducing the food and feeding schedules aren’t quick fixes but doing so gets closer to the root of the problem.

Could yougive me any advice of natural ways to get rid of snails in a nano tank wich includes neo caridinas?
Bought a 3 inch striped Raphael catfish. All snails gone in two days...
It would be great idea if you also upload shorts video about your content. Lots of people including me are more interested in short clips
Noted! And thanks for the suggestion. We'll also create additional shorts with our guides.
Feather fin catfish
Snails don't eat plants (except for some of the banned snails)
Snail populations grow when we overfeed
The best snail eaters are Assassin Snails. Buy 10 of them for any size aquariums and watch your snail problem dissapear in a few weeks or months
Hello, can any of these go in a cold water tank? Currently got mountain minnows and platy's in there with a bunch of pest snails :/
A chain loach could get accumulated to the temperatures. How cold is it? They can go down to 68. Otherwise goldfish - but they get larger. Slim bodies are better at harassing snails.
@@AquariumStoreDepot It's probably colder than that but thank you :). My platy fry seem to be nipping at them every now and again but things seem more difficult in cold water haha
I had bladder snails that were getting out of control on Saturday. I bought 2 yoyo loaches at PetSmart on Sunday. It's Thursday and I can't find any snails. This despite the fact the loaches have been hiding in my driftwood most of the daylight hours.
Well at least they took care of the snails 😅
I just couldn't do it. I made it to the 2:57 mark and the video still hadn't started yet
We heard this a lot from viewers. Our newer videos no longer have such long intros
I need help getting bladder snails out of my tank but I also have and want to keep my shrimp.
2 yoyo loaches cleared out my bladder snail problem in a 29 gallon aquarium in less than a week. Even the ones that had been hiding in floating plants that I wouldn't think bottom feeders would look for.
@@rogerhuggettjr.7675 Thank you I will try them I get they may take some shrimp but I have a have lot and a lot of plants.
thanks its snail warfare in my tank
It basically sounded like the goldfish were the best ones, other than maybe the zebra loach.
I definitely need to know because I have a lot of snails and actually I don't mind them but I don't want them to just overrun the tank and not have any other purpose. Or if they DO have another purpose.
Loaches will eliminate snails - just pick the ones for your size. Keep in mind they prefer to be in groups.
uh i keep adding snail, cos my assasin snail really destroy them. btw in my opinion, baby snail more destructive to plant than big snail. when i start i add 6 adult bladder snail to aquarium, everything go great, but after they breed, i start recognice lost of tiny hole in plant, n everthing start go ugly. until i remove all adult snail +adding 7 assasin snail, they eat alot of baby snail, n i start adding snail to feed them xD
Assassin snails should be okay with shrimp?
I have hundreds of snails in my tank, but I also have shrimp. What fish can I use to eat all the snails without eating the shrimp? Any ideas welcome, TIA
Unfortunately of a fish eats shrimp it will likely have an appetite for inverts. Assassin snails are your best bet. They do have claims of them eating shrimp - but they usually only eat dying ones
Will these fish also work on assassin snails?
Pea puffers will eat any snail. That would be your best bet
are there any shrimp friendly fishes that eat snails?
Unfortunately no - assassin snails are your best bet
@@AquariumStoreDepot Thank you!
Will they eat shrimps also?
Yes - some of these fish will eat shrimp like the pea puffer
I found that yo-yo loach eat my shrimp 🦐 as well 😢
Unfortunately most of the snail eaters also like to eat snails too :-(
The snail-eating fish eat snails? Good to know...
