Discus tank snail control ideas

[piped]

Assassin Snails are a solid choice, but if you wanna go chemical-free, try blanched zucchini or cucumber on a fork. Leave it overnight, and by morning it'll be covered in snails. Just remove and repeat. Works in my 120 gallon, heavily planted, CO2 injected. My Discus don't mind the veggies, but the snails go nuts for them.

This worked for me too. Also, keep up with water changes to remove eggs. My 60 gallon's snail-free after a month of this.

I feel your frustration. Snails can be overwhelming, but don't worry, you'll get it under control. Try the veggie method first, and if that doesn't cut it, Assassins are a safe bet. My 75 gallon's thriving now, and the Discus are doing great. You got this!

Manual removal's tedious but effective. I use a turkey baster to suck them out. Works in my 55 gallon, and the Discus don't even notice. Just gotta stay consistent.

Thanks for all the advice, everyone. Gonna try the zucchini trick first and maybe grab some Assassin Snails if that doesn't cut it. Appreciate the help!
