About this deal

You know the ones with the angled openings that allow worms to squeeze in while keeping shrimp out?

Planaria worms feed on meat and may actively hunt for prey if there’s not enough leftover food in your aquarium. However, the shrimp and fish you receive may be discolored and the reason of this issue is strong vibration during transportation and they're not be fed during the transport period If snails are to be removed, can they live in a floating bag with some thing to hold onto for a few days (for heat purposes?Note: Unfortunately, it is almost impossible to keep crayfish in planted tanks. Crayfish will eat and uproot the plants. Read my guide about Marbled Crayfish here. 6. Chemical Removal

Pea puffers love snails. Although they look so cute, in reality, they are cunning and voracious little predators. Pea puffers are merciless and dedicated hunters, with an endless appetite for your snails, shrimp, crayfish or crab.Place the fish bag in a cool, corner, and dark place. Prevent the bag from being bumped, slipped, or dropped. This'll give your new fish a good recovery and acclimatization after a shaky ride from the shop to your home. They are meet eaters, maybe even canibalistic and eat their own dead as well. But eat anything that contains proteine. If you don't see them in the light they don't do harm, they do cleanup.. If you see them on the glass can be an unsightly look. But as said, than you have a huge number in the substrate. Than be carefull with using chemicals or what so ever to kill them.. A treat will leave you with a ton of dead worms in the substrate, fauling and rotting away. This can cause ammonia issues leaching from the substrate and maybe some bacterial issues, bacteria living of rotting meet is nasty stuff. Than after a succesfull planaria genocide it's advisable to do a lot of extra water changes for quite some time. Using a vacuum bell syphon to give the substrate a good clean will definitively help. Most planarians are free roaming and scrape a living through grazing, although some can be predatory or parasitic. Hope this is helpful. It is only my experience though and all tanks are different, blah, blah, blah.... So please use your own judgement! Like before, always clean and sanitize additions to prevent infestation problems.

Freshwater snails, baby shrimp, and even adult molting shrimp may all fall prey to these carnivorous worms. I’ve also observed Planaria feasting on the eggs of shrimp and snails. Do you know of any other fish that would work for a 60L, eat mosquitos and have a good personality? I was given the tank before I went to any fish shops, and now I've fallen in love with the dwarf cichlids as they seem so charming IRL, but from what I can tell the german & bolivian rams & kribs would need a bigger tank, is that right? The internet is ful of all sorts of advice that I can tell I can't really trust, though here I always get great advice. I have seen on here someone had a pair of rams in a 60L, but as I have the other fish I'm not sure it would work. Perhaps they all like the bottom too much, I think that's true for the apistos. My motivation for a larger 100cm+ tank is to get a small group of bolivians tbh.Certainly better than any of those “Cures Columnaris” hobby remedies ... most contain a dye compound that has some anti-bacterial activity, hence the claim that it will combat Columnaris ..... )

Sorry to hear you are still having this issue! You could try another aquarium but I would keep everything new and seperate so it will be a slow process. I would get new shrimps for it as well when it is ready!General maintenance is one of the best ways to get rid of snails. Remember that snails are just an indicator of the balance in your tank. Therefore, fighting them directly is not the way to win this war. Today I am going to talk about how to remove snails from a shrimp tank. If you have been reading my articles before (for example, “ Benefits of Snails for a Shrimp Aquarium” or “ Malaysian Trumpet Snails – Pros and Cons for Shrimp Tank”) you would know that I love snails. They are the best friends for our shrimp and an excellent addition to the clean-up crew. I always advise having them in a shrimp tank. I find it ironic that these worms are difficult to find in the wild but are a common nuisance in our aquariums.
