Help needed! My egg clutch fell in the tank over night. I took it out and "helped" it hatch by breaking it apart as I saw in a video. So now I have about 10 baby snails in a jar. How do I transfer them to my tank without hurting them? Is a 10 gallon planted tank too big for them? They are even...
I'm gonna have baby snails! First, I'm gonna have to research how to hatch the clutches and care for the babies. Anyone have any info or sites you'd recommend for a newish snail mom?
I want to get some floating plants for this tank. I am thinking about Duckweed just because it's the only one I really know of. Does anyone have any other recommendations that are betta and Snail safe?
Thanks so much! Betas get the short end of the stick a lot. I love them and love to give them as much room as I can. They all seem to thrive with it. :)
Thanks! That's good to know. I thought the cucumber would be better for them than algae wafers. Lol. Darn. They seem to enjoy both the wafers and the cucumber equally, as far as I can tell, so that's good. :)
They jump on the food as soon as it's offered, so I couldn't tell if I wasn't feeding...
Thanks! His old tank was so haphazardly thrown together. I basically bought stuff over the course of a year and put it in wherever it fit. There was no plan and it showed. I think Kurt, Apollo (Gold Mystery Snail) and I all like the new one better lol
I have done three planted tanks for three betta fish and a total of 10 snails (3 adults and 7 babies) between them. I am new to aquascaping, but loving learning. I only the name of about a forth of my plants, sadly, but so far they all seem to be doing well. Each tank is better than the last. I...
I just upgraded Kurt (my veiltail betta) from a 5 gallon to a 10 gallon tank. I have to admit, I'm proud of the way it came out.
Old 5 gallon:
New 10 gallon:
I have a fairly new tank that hasn't developed algae yet which currently houses baby snails. I've been feeding them algae wafers and blanched cucumber, but am not sure if there is such a thing as overfeeding...I know my betta would eat himself to death if I let him. Will my snails do the same...
So happy that my babies arrive. 10 were shipped to me (9 babies and 1 adult) but there are still 2 babies who I'm not sure made it. All the others seem healthy. I have all the babies together currently, but plan to split them up between 6 tanks eventually.
