Showdown!

For scale, please refer to bloodworms.

I love assassin snails!

let me guess... the assassin snail wins

I bet those assassin snails would be great for an way to thin out a over populated tank of pond snails that do not have fish to eat them like smaller puffers

thats just what they are used for fade

Yeah, they're really popular for that. I need my MTSs for sand-stirring in my planted tank, so I keep my assassins in a different tank, but they're really cool pets.

The assassin finally lost the battle.

I hear the adults do that on larger snails. o.0

yep... they are burrowers like MTS snails.

When something passes by they chase after is a lightning (for a snail) speed

They are pretty hard to find around any lfs's around me. Mainly seen are the apple, mystery, pond, trumpit snail are all I ever seen before. I might have to look really good next time in the tanks in lfs's. Btw, I subscribed to your YouTube channel. I really like the Bloat videos. He is a really neat guy

Mine cost me $6 each, I bought 2 and got one as a freebie. So started with 3 and now have 20+

I finished writing the care sheet on them last night.

Bob sells them for $2.50 each, or $22 for ten.

they are cool... just re-read my page.. haha sounds strange... will have to fix the grammar.

They are VERY good hunters. In snail time they are quite fast and can chase down others. Blood thirsty critters
