That mystery thing is known as a siphon. The snails use it to get air at the surface. You can say that its their version of a snorkel.

okay, thanks. do you know how snails have fry though? and what all it takes to get them to do it.

 

[mgamer20o0]

snails dont have fry. fry is a fish. are you asking how they breed?

 

[d1anonly22]

yeah thats what i mean.

they are egg layers above the water. there are also male and female snails. if you have them i would lower the water line about a inch or two.
