they do very well!they like warmer temperatures, like around 80-82 is their favorite. and they do eat just about anything you give them. they loooove fresh veggies, algae wafers, fallen fish food, yes anything xD
ALSO i believe they can get to around 3 inches long- my mother is already 2 or 2.5 at least.
just an update guys:
i'd do 2 for $5, 3 for $7
still the $6 priority shipping
lol. the only ones that even make it up on the plants are the little babies. the rest are too heavy and I've only seen the mom eat algae wafers, cucumbers, and whatever she finds in the sand. Sometimes she seems to snack on things on the glass- the babies more often than her- and she really leaves my plants alone.
They are heavy though. The bigger they get, the lazier they get lol. Momma snail will climb up the 18 inches of glass, but usually she crawls around the bottom, stuff like that.
Also they have the cutest faces.
I will try to find some pictures, but I don't have very good face shots. I might get my sister to let me use her camera (been meaning to borrow it anyways- lol!) but for now, I will share a couple of cute shots :3
Momma LOVES her cucumber
Momma climbs the glass, with a baby next to her, and on her back, a nerite snail is going for a ride!
Quality time- baby "snuggling" with mom
And here's a baby. To give you an idea of how small this newborn was, the cave behind it is a votive candle holder, and its a few inches behind it.
lol! that's cool MTS are rad, i've got some babies growing in a 1 gallon tank that i'll move back to the 29 soon. also I'd love some shrimp. hope you find some!
Well! Thanks for looking at my thread folks, I am all out of babies for now. If my girl keeps going at the rate she is though, I'll be sure to have plenty more in a few months!
Cute pictures...I have pond snails I am raising simply cause they were on some plants I got and didnt want to kill them so they are in a gallon tank and I love watching them and your right snails do have the cutest little faces ! A few did end up in Perseus`s tank and he found one and ate it before I got get it out..yikes...But I dont want them in his tank cause they do lays eggs fairly quicky and alot of them. I hope everyone enjoy their snails !
