Where did you come from, Mr. Snail?

Thought I'd make the title a little interesting.

Noticed a baby snail in my 10 gallon QT tank today, looked around, the only one I've seen. I have only put fish, fake decor, PVC pipes and floating amazon frogbit plant in this tank.

So I'm guessing it's from the plant, though, I put that in the tank over a month ago. Any other thoughts? Should I expect a million more of these guys?

Also, what do I do with it? Right now the snail is in a plastic baggie of water in my trash can?

You could take him to a LFS and see if they want him. Or just give him away.

What kind of snail is he?

I would just isolate him in a QT with a couple plants and see what he develops into. You could do the same with any others that you happen to come upon.

Give him to me!!! All of my other pets have failed... Lol.
