Speaking of snails...we have a pair of Apple Snails that have laid eggs twice but neither batch has hatched. They lay their eggs above the water level and we have made sure that when doing water changes/adding water (this time of year we get a lot of evaporation) that they remain above the water level but no babies. Is there something we're doing wrong?
We have a yoyo loach in our 49g tall tank and even though he does pig out on the flakes that we feed the other fish in the tank he still loves to dig around in the gravel and eat the ramshorn snails too.
An easy way to trap unwanted snails is to use a plastic soda/water bottle with an algae wafer in it, the snails will crawl into it (maybe some fish too) and you just take it out and let them dry out, or crush them and feed them back to the fishies.
