I have a tank and I recently put 2 mystery snails in there. I noticed a couple days later that there were babies everywhere. I read that mystery snails lay there eggs above water, but I never saw any sign of eggs above the water. Is it possible for the snails to lay there eggs underwater? Any info would be greatly appreciated :)
 
Maybe they got all sneaky with them and his them under the ledge? Other than that, got nothing P.S. Totally jealous! :D

^ yea same lol. If they were on the front rim of the tank unless you stuck your head in their you probably wouldn't notice.
 
Just to play Devils advocate - are you sure the babies are mystery snails? Maybe some other hitch hiked and if they are very small it's hard to tell. But yeah check the full rim of your tank for egg casing remnants.
