Man, I never thought about the peroxide dip. Gonna try that next time. Sounds way easier than picking snails off one by one.

Just remember to keep the quarantine tank simple. No substrate, maybe a cheap sponge filter. Makes it easier to clean and monitor everything.

And if you're really paranoid, like me, you can add a tiny bit of aquarium salt to the quarantine tank. Helps deter pests without harming the plants.
