I gave all my nerites fancy names like "Sir Spiffington Balderdash." I'm still trying to think of names for my three new ones, though. Any ideas?

Has anyone seen the blue mystery snails? They look fake! I thought their shells were painted the first time I saw some.

I have what I *think* are some baby mystery snails in my main tank, they're the right shape, but they're grey-blue with some white spots! Do the blues look like that? I don't think I've ever seen a baby one, and google image search isn't helping me... These hitchhiked in on some plants from the LFS. I should have known, their mysteries and plants are in the same tank, but I never saw any that look like that.

I'm doing an experiment with a couple egg clutches to see where they hatch better. I left one where it was laid and one I moved to an "incubator".

Those are sooo pretty! Don't your apple snails eat your live plants? I really like your rabbit snails!
