I'm hoping, If anything, we're overfeeding, and with our water a little out of balance from so many fish back home so quickly, it's a concern. We're keeping a careful eye on everything until it settles down. And if I have to cut back on food and buy more cleaner crew in a few days, it would seem like that's my better choice, if I have to make one.

We tried hot sauce - that didn't work either (just kidding, in case anyone gets the wrong idea!) But a time-out would be nice - our fuge just isn't big enough, and since I haven't followed Becky's prime rule #1 - the QT - I'm kinda stuck. But I haven't seen any other fish eating the snails or the hermits - only him. It's still possible he's getting help, but for sure he's the biggest, if not the only culprit.
