Their eggs might not get fertilized in fresh water but they will lay tons of eggs on driftwoods and that looks horrible atleast for me :|

rajiv,
U must buy nerite snails from jaws raj narayan. Once the eggs are laid in freshwater, they cannot hatch even if later put in brackish/marine water. The eggs must directly be laid in brackish water in order to hatch.
