Would pest snails or baby rams and such make a good occasional goldie snack? Or would a shells be too hard to digest. You all talk about your goldies eating pest snails, so I was wondering if there would be any good effects, protein or such?

im sure theyre fine occasionally. my guys eat em all the time, and theyre no worse for hte wear. the babies shells are so thin and brittle, it dont hurt the fishies

My goldies ate larger snails too but they somehow pulled them out of their shells the poor dears but they much the babies down like popcorn if they wander in on a plant or the like.

those small pest snails cost ten cents a peice at the lps.... would it be bad to by a bunch and let them grow and lay eggs in my tank so my gf will always have something to munch on....

Or do I NOT want this to happen????

BTW, I do not have any live plants, but someday I want to buy a bunch of Java fern online.

oh you do not not not want pest snails!!!!!!!!!!1 they will be everywehre!!!!!!!!!

That's how much of a pest they are? Even with the goldfish munching on them?

Whew! glad I asked!

Thier like rabbits with shorter incubation period, just to put it into prospective.
