I recently got some new plants for my tanks, and they had some hitchhikers.
Now my platy tank is flooded with pond snails, and my guppy tank has some too.
platy tank has small brown round ones, and the guppy tank has slightly bigger ones with white feet.
you know what i mean when i say feet on snails.
but anyway i thought "oh i should take some and put them in the betta tank" because that tank is flooded with algae and we can barely see the blue halfmoon betta.
what i forgot was snails nuking the tank with ammonia when they die.
i know this applies to nerite snails-
-snail dies
-snail decomposes quickly
-snail produces large amounts of ammonia
does this apply to the tiny pond snails?
did i make a mistake throwing them in my betta tank?
can the betta eat them?
