Ok, so i've been noticing some more slugs roaming over the last week, but today i must have over 100 small slugs roaming. What should i use to kill them, or is there a fish that eat them?

Pics would help identify them and deermine if safe or not.If unable to post pics,Google to see if you can identify them.

A wrasse or a puffer would do the trick. I recommend blue spot tobies if you don't have and small invertibrates or snails that you like. A sixline wrasse could help as well. They can be slightly agressive towards new fish if they are added after the sixline.

Why do you want to get rid of them?

Are they hurting anything? What will happen if you do nothing, will they find an equilibrium in your tank?
