If anyone is like me, they hate cleaning their tank. I was wondering if anyone has had any success with some kind of algae eaters such as a plecostomus or possibly snails. I'm not sure what the turtle will do with them... from past experience I would assume he would try to eat them... just like everything else in the tank (stupid turtle).



Let me know if you have any in your tank successfully, or if you've tried in the past and advise against trying it.



Thanks,

Jordan
