![]() "Gail Futoran" wrote in message ... I have 3 skunk botia in one tank and although there are snails present, there are very few compared to the tank with no botia. I have 2 YoYo loaches in another tank; same situation. They get enough food (community tanks) that they don't need to eat all the snails, just keep them in check. I really don't mind snails that much, just don't want millions of them! Neither of these fish get that big (3-4" and slender), which is why I bought them rather than the clown loaches. Gail I have both yoyos and Angelicus in different tanks.... They cleaned hundreds out, but seem to have left a dozen or so breeding stock in each tank except for the tank with MTS, there all the pond snails vanished... They prefer the tender young snails (and angel eggs). I haven't seen a small snail in 6 months. Bob |

Bob I like the idea of my Skunk botia & Yo Yos keeping "breeding stock" of Ramshorn snails. ![]() Gail |
