Yes, snails and fish get on fine but you must count each snail as one inch of fish length to avoid overstocking the tank (fully stocked is one inch of fish not including tail per gallon of tank water).

What fish get along with underwater snails?

Mystery/Apple snails like their water too alkaline (around pH8) for most species of peacefull aquarium fish. If you must mix them with fish you will have to experiment. One snail needs around 2.5 gallons of water. Don't try to keep them with large cichlids cause they will be eaten. They are tropical so their water needs to be heated to around 75F. Don't keep them with goldfish either.

What freshwater fish eats insects and snails and grows to 16 inches in length?

The clown loach grows to over a foot long, but usually stays around 10 inches. You will need to keep multiple clown loaches in your aquarium to keep them happy.I don't know about insects, but I think many fish will eat insects if they have access to them. All botia species of loach will happily eat snails, but all are gregarious and like to be in groups. So, if you are looking for a single 16" fish that will eat snails and insects, the botias aren't for you, but they will eat snails.


What to keep slugs in?

It's best to keep them in fish tanks with ample space for them depending on there size you can also keep them in a gallon ice cream tub with holes poked on the lid if they are small and if you can't afford a fish tank. I've owned slugs/snails before.


You had fish in your fish tank for about 3 months and all of a sudden you have snails in the tank and there are no real plants in the tank where did the come from?

well the snails had to grow from somewhere right?! if you had no real plants then i guess it would be quite hard to get them to grow!!! but they wouldn't have hitch hiked some times private fish stores give you them anyway because the snails are used as cleaning facilities so it grew from there but remember if you keep it there is separate food that you have to feed it if you have no plants!!!
