Nerite Snails for Algae

[jackspratt]

I know some people don't like the use of Nerite's to control algae but they do a pretty decent job.
My Nerite snail hard at work cleaning my algae. The rock in the back looked exactly like the one in front 2 weeks ago. If you look closely, you can see him at work by the Anubias plant.
No calcium eggs either. I must say I'm pretty pleased and all the inhabitants are doing just fine.

I love my nerite snails....I still need to clean the front of the glass, but the do an amazing job on the rocks(holey/lace rock). Plus my mbunas leave them alone.
