I found a way to FEED SNAILS WITHOUT A MESS! xD

Hehe thought I would share.. I bought a cave called a "moon rock" from walmart. It glows in the dark... Well I give my nerite snails algae wafers, which make an awful mess in the gravel... Well I just put the algae wafers in this and they go right for it! So now instead of siphoning A LOT, I can just remove the cave and clean it out :D I like this one because it doesn't like REALLY artificial and tacky.

Your betta doesn't go in the cave? Mine will steal any food, the piggies.

Hehe no, at least not yet ;)
But when I put the food on the gravel, shed put it in her mouth but spit it out xD I guess she didnt like it!

I have that same cave! I don't put food in it for my snail (I take him out and feed him separately) but somehow my snail LOVES it! He's always in there. It's pretty awesome, because it means that most of his poop ends up in there, too! My betta on the other hand has never shown any interest in it.

can you take a pic of it in the dark?

I just tried... My camera showed the cave on the screen but once the pic was taken, it was completely black -_-

I do the same with a conch shell, and it adds calcium, and raises the Ph and KH

i love when I put in lettuce and come back to a big pile of poop, easier to clean ^_^
