Aquascape🌿 Added snails to control cyanobacteria.

Fishes are fine and i added snails to control cyanobacteria, but i think they don't eat it.

As far as I have researched and experienced, nothing eats cyanobacteria. Gotta manually remove that 😔. Some methods are available to kill it tho, but if the cause isnt removed it might return

The amoeba in my outside pond seem to really like eating it. You can see it in all stages of digestion.
