Bleach gets them good and then you don't have to worry about harming fish without scales or snails that you want. Just make sure to use dechlorinator afterwards.

She's got 25+ guppies in the tank now with 2 angels & a commom pleco. She's never once seen any fry which isn't odd considering all the guppies are doing is being vending machines for the angels, lol.180g - 2 Red Oscars, 1 Tiger Oscar, 1 JD, Convicts, convicts & more convicts
