Snails/ Algae/ Duckweed
- We maintain clean aquariums, but all aquarium plants have a chance of coming with snails, pests or duckweed. We will try to remove anything we see, but there is no guarantee. If you are really worried about aquarium pests we recommend that you rinse, dip and quarantine all new flora before placing in your tank.
