I started my tank way back in 2013 and the one thing i realized was that i was tired of constantly scrubbing and cleaning my tank so often. I decided to invest the time and money to buy the right species to assist me in keeping the tank clea. Having a fully functional cleanup crew is beneficial to keeping your aquarium running and looking clean!
I purchased 5 of these species in my local fish stores. the snails came free and was a mixed blessing as they can get out of control fast but they do work to keep tank clean as well geting into those hard to reach places.
