I heard that many aquarists are distressed by the problem of the long snail in the aquatic weed tank, and they have asked "Is there any way to kill the snail?" Does snails have an effect on aquatic weeds? (I heard that snails eat algae) ”
Then today Xiaobian will answer one by one for everyone!
First, there are snails in the water weed tank, which is caused by the newly moved aquatic weeds, which are not "disinfected before implantation" before entering the tank, and after implantation in the tank, the snails attached to the aquatic weeds and the unhatched eggs continue to hatch and reproduce.
Here's how to eliminate snails:
1. When the lights are turned on every morning, and one hour after the lights are turned off at night, the snail attached to the cylinder wall and the water weeds will be sucked out with the air duct, and after several repetitions, a good effect can be obtained.
2, use the "eight-character doll" fish to eliminate snails. Put in the figure eight doll to eat snails, once the snails are destroyed, it should be fished out in time, otherwise when the figure eight doll has no snails to eat, it will bite the small shrimp or aquatic grass carp in the aquatic grass tank, which should be paid special attention.
3. Potion killing:
(1) Put the newly purchased aquatic weeds into the disinfection tank, and after about 10-15 days, the snails and newly hatched small snails can be killed and then moved into the aquatic weed tank. The easiest disinfectants are "potassium permanganate" or "copper sulfate", which can be purchased from aquariums or chemical raw materials.
(2) When there are fish and shrimp in the aquatic weed tank, snails should be destroyed, and chemical germanium or natural organic germanium (Ge) can be used to break the snail shell to death without harming aquatic weeds, fish and shrimp and nitrifying bacteria.
Second, snails will eat algae, but only eat the most tender newly grown algae, adult algae and steel algae (old algae) and do not eat, the consumption of algae is limited, for the control of algae does not have a great effect.
