OK - I can get 500g of copper sulphate on ebay for £6.00 - Anyone know how
much I should add per 1000 litres of pond water to destroy the snails
(without over doing it and cost me too much!).

Thanks for ALL of your help to date....

in soft low pH water copper sulfate is more toxic to fish. at high pH
the copper
locks up with calcium. cs is not recommended to use it with high pond
temps either.
they "think" the killing of algae and oxygen depletion is one reason
for fish death.
not sure about that but it is a .edu site so more dependable.
