the fact that the snails can hide like on the anubias, behind moss balls.. under the wood.. doesnt help the situation..

sure whack.....one question to ask bro.....

i intend to buy plants for my apples to munch, but might be ex...will those Hikari sinking algae wafers do the trick? And my water is stagnant....no aeration....and also water change once a week sufficient? Its just a small tank with water....dun wanna set up too many things as I'm decomm-ing tanks rite now...

apple snails... are very hardy..
u wont be surpised..
they come to the surface..
form a conical shape to so called trap floating pellets so they can eat them..
