Regular Member Goldyfan Posted January 22, 2008 Regular Member Share Posted January 22, 2008 Ohyeah snails are beyond addictive....there are some here that now breed them. I started out with two, now I have 11 (huge) babies and their momma. Had to go out and buy a new tank for them. And I still want more! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member CometSue Posted January 22, 2008 Author Regular Member Share Posted January 22, 2008 The gold mystery has been affectionatly named Hiromi,and the ramshorn Yasu. After i took these ,Hiromi really showed it's personality.And just as i was about to snap this awsome pic of it eating algea off the glass(really cool i could see its mouth)My camera went dead.Guess thats how it goes.

Isn't that the truth! I love the looks on peoples' faces when I tell them I have PET snails. Hilarious!! But they really are fascinating creatures.

But they really are fascinating creatures. I have a 5 gallon tank with my snail Gary running in the same room as my 30 gal goldie tank. People always love watching the goldies then notice Gary's tank and as what's in there. When they see or I tell them I always get the same look....

Snails are actually quite cute,and have pretty good personality.More people should really give them a chance.They remind me of cats for some reason.lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
