Some of the fish keepers think that they are useful and some invest efforts to get rid of them. Those who think that they are useful call them aquarium bulldozers and praise their ability to eat leafs, dead fish and uneaten food and keep the tank "clean" from troubles. Other fish keepers just can't see their present in the tank and spend time to get rid of them claiming that those snails disfigure the tank, they also say that the snails create new colonies in short time and those colonies create excreta and quickly deteriorating water quality.
