I have a tiny tank with 3 guppies and 1 mystery snail. Added A plant and it came with friends. So far I see 5 tiny snails with shells formed, 2 in the process and a few more that look like there building up to it...what do I do?
I recently got an aquarium and I've never had snails before. This is Roomba! I have another one too that I haven't got video of yet to determine sex. They are so fascinating though, I love watching them!!
has anyone had trouble with their mystery snails absolutely demolishing their almond leaves?? i have them for 2 weeks before they have a million holes and gone😩… does anyone know how i can maybe fix this?
has anyone had their mystery snails absolutely demolish their almond leaves? i can’t keep them for 2 weeks without them having a million holes in them and half gone 😩… is there anyway i can stop this?
Question. I don't know if this is the right reddit page for this. I have se eral fun pet snails, but I also breed bladder snails for food for my aquariums. If this is OK, can I ask anyone who can suggest where I may be able to replenish my colony inexpensive. I need hundreds of them and can't wait for them to breed.
I finally got a video of the white snail let me know male or female cause I have no idea. Also I was laughing at its mouth
I just found these in my gold inca tank. I’m guessing they’re eggs, but I’m more concerned about the fact that they’re above water. Is this normal?
I'm going to keep posting about my Assassin's Snails because I love them.
But my colony is getting a new home so I'm documenting everything I can from this tank so I know behaviors don't change when swapping them to the new one.
P.s. this colony was never my intention.
I just love their little antennas and mouth's so much!!!!! They are SO CUTE
I found this MTS in my ASSASSIN SNAIL COLONY TANK! idk how it's alive but I moved it to my invert tank and named it "Titan" until I lose track of them
I have 2 mystery snails in a tank that had babies (they're getting donated to my local pet store) and her shell is getting worse! I feed them all zucchini, blood worms, spinach. I have crushed shells in there as well as cuttle bones in the tank. I use tap water and change the water once a week. About 10%. The tank is about 10 gallons. The ph is a bit low last i checked at around 7.0. No3 was a bit high at around 60 ish. What else should I do? Do you think the babies are feeding their shells?
The two on top are male and the one under earth is a female
For the past week, my snail has been turning on its side / turning over. He stays like this for a long time, like a day or more? And then will continue moving around the tank. This is definitely a new behaviour and it's worth noting this little guy must be about 3 years old now. Any ideas?
I bought a singular assassin snail to deal with some pests in my goldfish tank. He did great. But now he doesn't have food.
Is there anything he should have? Currently I try to give him whatever high protein foods my goldfish eat but the goldfish tend to beat him to it.
These are my* mystery snails, Goomy and Valencia. They are gorgeous.
*the tank is my partner’s; the fish, plants, snails, and everything else are all my partner’s, I just named the shellboys so I call them mine too. Yes, I know this side needs to be cleaned.
We switched tanks for our mystery snail. It’s only been and hour and he did this. Is it normal??
I have two black nerite racer snails, they've been doing well until about 4 days ago one fell off the glass and hadn't moved until today. He seems smaller just wanting to get some opinions on what would cause this.
Ph is 8.0 My tap water is ridiculously hard so when I test it using the strips its at about max And the other snail is just fine so i assume bad water is out of the mix Yes im cycled
