My aunt came through

Post by blackghostknife »

As you may know my aunt was supposed to bring me some ramshorn snails for Christmas and she did. I got 14 adult ones and quickly put them in my ten gallon spare tank with a sponge filter. I am feeding them flake food and already have about 80 tiny amber colored snails crawling everywhere :smitten: . Is there anything else I should be feeding them? Btw this means I am one step closer to getting a puffer! :D
The woods would be very silent if no birds sang there except those that sang the best. Use the talents you possess.

Pufferpunk's biggest fan!!!

algae wafer... but there is an ingredient in them that should be avoided... I think it is Ethoxyquin. but "sevenyearnight" can tell you more.

blanched green veggies are also a fave ... spinach, cucumber etc...

If they are feeders.. find eggs. Do what you are doing and keep it up. It is really simple. Display snails take more work :/
if you follow me, you avoid stepping in the crap that I just did...
