I would like to put some Ampullaria snails there since they&#8217;re good algae eaters. Will they survive or will cichlids kill them? original post: December 14, 2006, 5:04 am anonymous 2008-04-30 Answer no. 1 http://forum.aqua-fish.net/?topic=cichlids-and-snails#2 Cichlis will probably kill all snails even if they&#8217;re large or not (I mean snails). However, Scalare or other peaceful cichlids live with snails in peace . So it depends if your fish are aggressive or not. Also, small and peaceful fish will let them be. last modification by jan anonymous 2008-04-30
