It all depends on your stock. Crayfish can use those pinchers if given the chance at fish.

Yeah I know, that's why I walked away thought I'd better look into it first.
Cheers anyway!

Sent from a giant magical fish that jumps, flys and swims across oceans just to send that beautiful message up there. ???
 
Blue mystery arrived today, currently acclimating in a bowl on my desk:

I keep seeing lines that go back and forth like little tire tracks just above the water line. Is this from the nerites taking a trip out of the water?

Could any of you snail experts identify them?
 
Talk about climbing skills.... I am seriously impressed!

I caught some wild olive green ramshorns from my ranch today and I am bringing them home to my aquarium tonight! Has anyone ever heard of GREEN ramshorns? I haven't but it may just be that I live under a rock.

I googled "Olive Green Ramshorn Snails" and couldn't find anything that looked like what I caught. For sure they are ramshorns and I know it's not algae that is causing this coloration. They have reddish brown bodies and olive green and brown shells. They are multicolored and really cool! I just got two of them. A baby and a large adult. Hopefully the age gap won't be a problem for breeding. I will be sure to post pics when they get acclimated and are active!
