I finally caught and removed a PolyClad Flat Worm:rip: that has been eating all my snails. When I found him early yesterday morning with a flashlight he was eating a snail as he tried to slither away. Now its time to restock a CC.:bigsmile:

I have been putting 50 snails in every 3 months for over a year. I could only find 2 that were alive.

I will be spot checking at night with a flashlight, and watching for dead snails.

I had one of those years ago, other than being a flat worm I had no idea what it was. I kicked it out just as precaution.

That was a good move. They are very hard to catch, at least in my tank. I nearly made a bunch of frags in the process.lol.

I caught one of those completely by accident a few years ago, I put my finger on it while moving a rock... freaked me out!
