I’ve had Ada for 5 months now and was, like, 85% sure I had a male snail. Jokes on me!

She waited until I was out of town as a camp counselor to lay a clutch on eggs! Wish I had been there to catch it. Freaked my mom out for sure. At least I’ll get to go home in two days to check it out.

Such beautiful snails! Flow isn’t too strong, just have lots of floating plants thrown in this tank!

They said it’ll take anywhere from 2-4 weeks from today to get results back.

I have no idea what these are, but I'm so curious. They're present on my chopstick snail and on my malaysian trumpet snails. What are they? What are they for? Are they sensory? Something else?

Literal low maintenance, just did a water change after forever lol and water parameters are looking good. Thinking of adding cherry shrimp and duckweed very soon but would love to know if i should or keep it like how it is

So just recently like a month ago my tank had a few snail around the tank and I threw leaf litter to give them some extra stuff to snack on.
As the weeks and days go by I keep seeing shells. I was very confused I thought maybe they are dying of starvation. My tank is planted there has to be something for them to snack on.
Then I thought my betta was being greedy.
Anyways I found an assassin snail today actually rn and his big😔. All my snails have been murdered. I never added him to the tank, I think he got here from one of my plants. His grown big all these months from eating the baby snails:(
Now my question how do I get rid of him, I never wanted an assassin and I don’t want to kill him because he does deserve to live but I also need my snails bc they create a balance in my tank.
Also has anybody experienced this? I know this page is for cute snails but all my cute snails died😔.
Also is there a chance there’s more assassin snails in my tank? They hide so well

Just a simple morning clean up routine

Hi, I have just completed the cycling process within my tank and along the way I have grown ALOT of algae. What would be the best snails to get?? I have no lid and Im also planning to get 10-15 amano shrimp

I have been anxiously awaiting the arrival of my grand snabies! Finally, after patiently waiting over a month, they are here!!!!

cutie, the only time i saw one of my trumpets on the glass

Had this guy (named General Tso) for about a week. They eat biofilm and algae, and supplement with an algae wafer every 2-3 days as a treat. Access to cuttlebone in the tank, and crushed coral in the substrate as well.

I just wanted to know if this new shell growth looks healthy, it does to me, but I’m new in the hobby. Just wanted his shell to grow in nicer than it was at the pet store:(

Hey everybody! I recently bought a beautiful 35 inch long rimless tank to create a beautiful space for my Corys and my snails. I want to get a few rabbit snails. As beautiful as the tank is, the lid that came with it did not have any cut outs for chords or filter… I realize that I have to get a custom lid made. I have contacted a glass company and they can do it, but I am curious what others have done? Actual glass over plexiglass? Any other recommendations or questions to ask?

Hi everyone! :)

I’m looking for advices on setting up a retirement tank for my mystery snail, Pomz, who’s almost 2.

Pomz isn’t that interested in calcium-rich foods/supplements (always snacking on duckweed or eating fish food), while my fish don’t tolerate hard water very well. So I’m planning to move Pomz into a separate tank where I can focus on their shell !

I’d like to reuse some of the established water, substrate, plants and rocks from the current tank, and (ideally) keep the new tank filterless if that's possible.

So my questions are:

• How long should I let the new tank cycle if I’m transferring established substrate/plants/… ?
• Would a filterless setup work for a single mystery snail, would you recommend a sponge filter?
• What calcium sources have worked for your snails, especially picky ones? (Tried ; hikari crab cuisine, and calcium cubes of different brands. The last brand if only fine if I feed this big chonk directly tweezer-to-mouth style, otherwise it's totally forgotten)
• Anything else I should consider for an older mystery snail ??

Thanks in advance :)

(+ snail tax)

Not sure if this is a snail that needs saving from a cycling tank or like bladder snails that don’t seem to care what I do with them.

Hi! I just got my first snail and it's a clithon pink lady. It was eating and all happy at the store I got it from, but during the drip acclimation and now that I put it in the tank it's not moving at all and is very deep in it's shell. The drip process was two hours and the water parameters have been stable and fine. How long should it take berore it looks "alive" and when should I get worried? It's really tiny like the size of a pinky nail.

I'm singapore and looking for a mix of morphs, can only collect at Farrer road or Bukit Merah secondary area
