When it comes to reproducing, snails are the rabbits of the aquarium world, as this Apple Snail owner found out. Can you give her some advice, or take a extra few snails off her hands?

(1) kc says:

run a peice of lettuce under hot water then place it at the bottom of your tank weighed down with a rock or something on the corner, then turn off the lights and got to sleep. when you wake up in the morning dont turn on the lights but remove the lettuce along with all the snails on it. you can use mutiple peices of lettuce… good luck
