Does anyone know how to tell predatory leaches from parasitic ones? I have
been catching these large leaches and I am thinking of adding them to my next
native tank. If they are the predatory type they would be good to keep down the
snail population. These are round when relaxed about the size of a quarter.
They are about 3/16" thick and are very active.

religious persecution." "They then persecuted the Indians for having
their own cultural and religious beliefs." Student, "What are they doing
now?" Teacher, "Moving in on the rest of us."
