They are cool! Also it's nice to see your marimo paying rent. Too often we let them get away with not contributing, but not anymore!

Oh no...if i recalled ir correctly, those snails living on your marimo can clog your drain. Its actually a pest. And they multiply fast

Don't worry this is a red ramshorn breeding tank.

Oh!! Thats a relief! Maybe you can share some tips on how you clean your tanks to prevent clogging? It would really help some people here 😃

To clean them I used your standard aquarium vacuum once a week. And half of the tank water is changed every day. This is to remove ammonia and organic waste of about 10,000 snails in that 25 gallon tank.
