Hail to the snail(s)

Post by Tonke »

Today it finally happened...
After 2month feeding and lots of Barry White on the stereo they have laid lots and lots of eggs.
This morning i could see 5 big clutches of egg's and i hope they will hatch so i don't need to visit my local petstore every week for more give away snails :D .

I just hope that they fall to my Fahaka's liking or else im sitting there with 500 snails :D

once they get big enough your fahaka will suck them down in a heart beat

I just hope that the cherry shrimps will get into the mood soon and produce some offspring so the Belseblobb get something else to look for in his endless hunt for bellystuffing :D

a fahaka wont be interested in cherries for very long, once they start growing they ten to ignore smaller foods, mine lives with 3-4 ghost shrimp that I have seen trying to eat the same piece of shrimp he was and he didnt care.. I think they know its not worth the effort to chase them lol

Well that can be a good thing actualy, my blobb aren't that fond of ancistrus cleaners so then maybe the shrimps are a good idea to have around when he gets bigger yup
