Show off your snails!

[lindenthaler.9]

I've had this guy show up in one of my snail breeding tanks for my puffers. I wouldn't even think about feeding him off so he's just in there to make it look better now.

That is a very interesting looking snail! So cool! So snail newbie question, I can mix different kinds of snails together in the same aquarium right? Except for assassin which eat other snails?

So far my 4 nerites seem very well fed on all the brown algae. I did put an algae waffer in about a week ago and in the morning there was still pieces left with no snails on them so I took what was left out. If I add a wafer will they eventually find it if the fish don't eat it all? Do you recommend anything else to feed them. I think I've read spinach, zucchini and lettuce before. How long do you leave it in there before taking leftovers out? Thanks so much for the help. I am really loving all the different snails and really want to get more but want to make sure I know how to take care of them first.

Thanks! The otos really seem to love the mystery snails, never bothered with Kevin the nerite though.

Ugh, probably should stay away from eBay....

My new nerite. I've only owned one apple snail before so I'm very new to snails.
