I got some algae wafers for the snailies.. but they dont sink! on the tub it says 'advanced sinking formular' or something like that.. dry.gif
Is there any way to make them sink?

smile.gif Try soaking them for a little while in some tank water. The ones I have now sink, but I had one brand that just floated. So I would soak them.

Hope it works for you! exactly.gif

I've tried that too dry.gif They only sank when they got to that mushy point where they fall apart.. you'd think they would have tested them, how is a pleco or soemthing supposed to eat them if they are floating about in the current! rolleyes.gif

i had a brand that did that too... shockingly my pleco learned to adapt and actually swam upside down at the very top of the water to eat... it was a bit crazy to watch... ohmy.gif
