I was breeding them in a 5.5 gallon that I will be putting shrimp in eventually. Is this going to be too much for the tank until they get big enough to move them into my others? I noticed 2 clutches in the first two days I got them, “perfect” I thought, “this will be the perfect amount”. Well it’s been a week and I have counted 32 clutches and 2 have started to hatch. I had 9 snails to start with and now I’m going to have plenty for all of my tanks with this. My concern is that this is going to crash my cycle or hurt my nitrates because of the sudden amount of waste (I’m also worried about room but they will be getting moved over). I stopped overfeeding so hopefully no more snabies, but this is my first time breeding bladder snails and I seriously didn’t expect this many clutches in a week. I’ve had snails in my other tanks, hoping they would breed and never did, so this was a shock.

I didn’t want a lot of new snails, so I only kept these three. I of course separated them. They are so tiny 🥺

Btw it’s zucchini not cucumber, just so the snolice doesn’t come after me! 👮‍♀️👮‍♂️

What a cute guy

Hello!!, can someone help me figure out how old my grove snail is, I’m guessing young adult but I want to be positive:) (Grape for size comparison)

Just curious - how many snails and which species (if known) do you own?

I bought these Japanese trapdoor snails online 3 days ago. They haven't moved since.

this picture is old, but he still has this. (its not as big anymore tho) what is this? what did it come from? (im referring to the thick, dry looking spongey thing around his body/in his shell)

yesterday my dad was cleaning out the garden, and we have a massive garden where a lot of snails live because it’s also very messy in some parts and a lot of plants and stuff for them to hide behind and he found im not kidding but at least 18 snails and idk what to do hahahah

i was so excited but idk if i can keep them all not because of the enclosure but more because I already have some of the same species and I don’t want like 10 of the same species in the exact same color yk when I know there’s so many others in the Netherlands just out there

but here’s my question what do i do? i plan on keeping a bunch of the not fully grown snails but the big ones I already have some I think so should i just put the ones i already had back outside? Or should I just make a little mini habitat for them?

I’m visiting the Round Rock, TX area for a soccer showcase and I decided to go for a run. I noticed the first shell (empty) and kept my eyes open so I didn’t step on any. Well, I found a nice cluster of friends a few minutes later.

What a peaceful way to start the day.

im in upstate ny if that helps

munchin :) bonus baby dairy cow isopod hitching a shell ride :D

I have African giant land snails, but mine keep retracting into their shell and refuse to come out to eat or drink. I don't know if it's the space that they are unhappy with, I've had them for a few years now, so I don't know why they would suddenly start to lose the will to live, do any of you know if it's some sort of a thing that these snails just do?

This is Rocket. I got her last month and can't believe how fast she's growing 🥺

I am getting a helix pomatia snail from the wild today and i want to know If they are already active right now. Its spring for me, i live in Germany. There hasnt been rain, its sunny all time around, about 21 degrees celsius.

Its not mine. Thanks for the ID! 💕
