I bought an apple snail and two and a half weeks on I've seen two tiny snails, about the size of apple pips, crawling up the tank! The pet shop is happy to take the babies, should we end up with too many.
I've got three guppies, a cat fish and a siamese fighting fish (it doesn't fight!) in the tank, as well as the mother snail and her babies.
The problem I've got is that I need to clean the gravel using one of those gravel cleaning pumps. It's the first time I'll be using it, but I don't want to kill the babies. However the pet shop warned the tank will need cleaning as it's 25L and almost at full capacity.
Any ideas?
