I have alot of java moss in the corner of my 29g tank. I want to take about half out and add it to my new 10g fry tank I set up. But i dont want to worry about snails in it at all, I HATE SNAILS!! They are a PITA!! I dont like taking 20,30,40 min to pick them out when i clean the tanks. So if i could make sure no snails get in this tank, thats one less tank I have to worry about and about 45min-1hr I save on cleaning day
I have heard about 3-4% bleach and 96-97% Water, keep it in there for about 30-60 sec or a little more. Then rinse and soak in a bucket of dechlorinated water for 5-10 min. But I have also read/heard that this could kill the java moss!!! Is this true or no?? how many ppl have successfully done this?? Is there another way to insure no snails or snail eggs are in the moss when I put it in the new tank??
Thanks for any/all help !!
