55g tank. artificial plants, community fish. Infested with those low
life snails. I want to kill them all. And painfully if possible.

What do I use to kill them. Mostly cone shaped snails, no bigger than
1/2 inch. Don't say buy a snail killing fish as I already tried that. I
declare chemical war!

And once they're dead, dead, dead how do I get the chemical out of my
tank?

Thanks, in advance.

I have the same problem and was advised to drop a piece of cucumber
(elasticated to a stone) into the tank at lights out. Remove the cucumber
before lights on and millions of snails would be attached (to the cucumber
not the stone). I haven't tried it myself yet!
