Regular Member vmlola Posted October 17, 2006 Regular Member Share Posted October 17, 2006 I took a couple pics of my brave snail today! Sorry they are a bit blurry but you can see what he is doing! This is my 10 gal bare bottom with betta, Steve, and 4 snails. The croc is one that is connected to an airpump and the mouth opens and closes. Every now and then a snail will go inside to clean and it looks like he getting chewed up. Here he is, deep in the croc's mouth, He is trying to come out without being chewed up, Hurry, hurry the jaws are coming down, Sorry, I had a slow day!

Regular Member vmlola Posted October 17, 2006 Author Regular Member Share Posted October 17, 2006 It would have been funnier as a video as you could have seen the death defying feat of this snail. Those croc jaws drop quite fast once they open and there are no more bubbles to hold them up. This is also the same snail that some how got out of the aquarium, onto the kitchen counter, dropped onto the floor(hard ceramic tile floor no less) and made it across the kitchen when I spoted it one morning when I got up. Not sure where he was going, but he did crack his shell. I did not find the crack right away, it must have been hairline and then got worse when he grew a little.

Regular Member Katalyst Posted October 17, 2006 Regular Member Share Posted October 17, 2006 Sounds like the snails name should be Steve instead of the betta after Steve Irwin the Croc Hunter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
