Mystery Snail Mystery

I don't exactly know. We had him for about 6 months, but I think he was already pretty old when we got him because he was pretty big.

I got mine from PetSmart and I know he's older because the babies I got in the mail yesterday were wayyyyyyy smaller.

Ours too, well from Pet Valu which is the Canadian equivalent to Petsmart. I would like to see them when they are babies.

This is one of the little guys I got yesterday. He's about the size of a dime.

 

[Cdodds12]

He's a nice one, what's his name?

That's Gary gobbling up an algae wafer.

I haven't named the little purple ones. The big yellow one is called Epic Snail.

Epic Snail, that made me laugh.

Epic Snail, that made me laugh.

My boyfriend named him. As in, epic FAIL. But he's in no way a failure! I love the big guy!

Reminds me of when we first got married, we had a goldfish that my husband named Goldzilla.

 

[callisto9]

LOL. Oddly, he's the only inhabitant we've named. We've been losing guppies so fast (until recently) that I just didn't bother with names.

Cdodds12: What kind of substrate did you have in your aquarium when the snail was acting funky?

 

[Cdodds12]

It's just good old run of the mill aquarium gravel.
