This is genius, I love it, and I am going to buy a back up just in case I ever manage to break it or lose it. I feed a lot of Repashy to my bristlenose and the tank becomes overrun with pest snails who like to swarm the expensive food so the fish can't get to it.
This design is the best I have found! The capacity is high, the assembly and use are easy, and snails climb in, but they can't climb out. Shrimp and baby fish can climb out, but not snails. In particular, it does a great job getting teeny tiny ramshorn and pond snails.
I have tried two other models of snail trap. One did not have sufficient capacity and also dropped snails as I lifted it out. The other used a complicated and difficult to set assembly of plastic pins. That one was great in theory, but I came home to find a 2 inch baby bristlenose stuck in it, and though the snails were going in, they were also going back out.
I received the collector yesterday, put it in the tank and didn't quite wait the 24 hours as stated in the instructions, but it worked great. My only minor gripe is that the lid was a tiny bit loose so it wanted to come off as I lowered and raised it, but it's nothing a simple rubber band cant fix.
Very happy with the results of using this snail collector. My tanks tank you for it!
I had high hopes for this item and it did not fail to amaze me. Where have you been all my life? It filled up the first night and even captured 6 Corydoras (unharmed of course).
I've already reviewed this product, but that was on day two. It worked like crazy then but over the past couple weeks it has been absolutely fantastic. I made several mistakes from feeding elsewhere in my shrimp tank to not getting the air out (lid will lift). Fixed all that and my snail population is down to minimal. I don't know that I'll ever be rid of snails completely based on bladder snails being so prolific, but my tank is a hundred times nicer. Plus there is much less bioload to deal with. I don't bother with the little screen trap at the bottom since the snails can't really get out anyway and the shrimp can easily chow down all they want. Literally can't say enough great things about this product. Get one, or two!
This works! I've tried other snail traps and the snails can get back out and the trap would also keep floating up. The snails stay in this trap and they're easy to remove. It catches shrimp, but doesn't kill them. Great product
I am really impressed with this snail collector! In my guppy and cherry shrimp tank, I have to feed heavily to produce enough shrimp for my LFS, so I need help to keep the bladder snail population in check. This collector works beautifully, and the shrimp and guppies are able to easily exit the snail trap without being hurt. Perfect! Great design!
This is 16 hours! This thing works PERIOD!
Works great just need to give some suggestions of what foods to use
Works well, glad i bought it
