Daro Snail Kill

NOT SHRIMP SAFE!

Daro Snail Kill is a liquid aquarium treatment designed to effectively control and eliminate unwanted snail and parasite infestations in both freshwater and marine aquariums. Its active ingredient, Copper Sulphate (Anhydrous), is known for its efficacy in eradicating snails and certain parasites.


🐌 Product Overview

  • Purpose: Eliminates nuisance snails and certain parasites in aquariums.

  • Active Ingredient: Copper Sulphate (Anhydrous).

  • Form: Liquid solution.

  • Volume: 30ml bottle.


🧪 Dosage & Application

  • Dosage: Add 1 drop per 5 liters of aquarium water.

  • Application: Shake the bottle well before use.

  • Treatment Duration: Repeat the dosage on the second day.

  • Precautions: Do not use in tanks containing shrimp, as copper is highly toxic to them.


⚠️ Important Considerations

  • Toxicity to Invertebrates: Copper-based treatments can be harmful to invertebrates like shrimp and certain snails. Ensure that such species are removed from the tank before treatment.

  • Potential for Ammonia Spikes: The death of a large number of snails can lead to ammonia spikes due to decomposition. Monitor water parameters closely and perform water changes as necessary.

  • Impact on Plants: Some aquatic plants may be sensitive to copper. Observe plant health during treatment.


🧼 Alternative Methods for Snail Control

If you prefer non-chemical methods to control snail populations:

  • Manual Removal: Place a slice of cucumber or lettuce in the tank overnight. Snails will gather on it, allowing for easy removal.

  • Biological Control: Introduce snail-eating species like Assassin Snails or Clown Loaches, if compatible with your tank inhabitants.

  • Reduce Overfeeding: Overfeeding can lead to snail population booms. Feed only the amount your fish can consume in a few minutes.
