Hi - I have a 30cm cube nano with just shrimps. I was going to add a few Nerite snails to help with the algae - they seem to do a good job in my main tank. My main tank is rimmed and so escape-bids are very rare. Do people find that Nerites are continually getting out of rimless tanks? I know that they can last many days out of water.
In another post, someone recommended SnailSafe (a grease just below the rim). Horizon and ProShrimp in the UK list it but it seems to have been out of stock for many months. Horizon confirmed to me that they have struggled to get any.
So key questions: do nerites routinely escape rimless tanks and if so, are there any alternative methods to stop it?
thx in advance
Trevor
