{sb}I have  the opposite problem "Lack of snails" my Convict
{sb}quickly
{sb}devours any snails that dare to show there selves.
{sb}I would like to get a few more in the tank for it to eat as
{sb}it prefers
{sb}snails to other live foods...
{sb}If you could put a convict in your tank it would slowly get
{sb}rid of
{sb}your snail problem, but be warned they are fairly
{sb}aggresive...
I have the same problem.  Someone else told me a while back to try adding 
copper to the water, (for freshwater) to get rid of the snails, but just 
adding a little.  Would this work also?
