I couldn't get a pic of Cracker tonight, but lil ones shell is a bit funny around the edges and will probably be like that alway's, hence the name Cracker! biggrin.gif

Your new snails are awesome!!! I'm so jealous <_< I wish I could get different coloured ones too. sad.gif

Do you keep your snails with GF or do they have their own tank?

I had to put mine with GF recently and they seem to be ok. I put them in with the more gentle fish, my ranchu and bubble eye smile.gif

They are in there own tank for now, but I intend for them go in my 55 gl with the Oranda's. smile.gif

As near as I can tell, we have about 4-5 new MTS baby's too. smile.gif They will go in the 55. I have two more tanks I plan on putting fish in as I go along, so there's plenty of room for growth here,lol! smile.gif


And it certainly looks like we are growing......... rofl3.gif

Are you feeding your snails the peels of a lemon or do they eat the uneaten food in which the fish do not each

Sorry!!

Hi 20,
I feed them vegies and Orange slices. Zucchini, yellow squash, cooked broccoli,carrots,greenbeans. I also toss in algae wafers occaisionally. I use a food clip to clip some of the beans or larger stuff to, and let some settle to the bottom of the tank in other spots so they don't all converge on one piece. biggrin.gif

Suppliment the water with calcium drops also!

hah.gif @Devs!

Yes, I'd be happy to take some colored briggs! Just at the moment, my whole upstairs is a class A disaster area! The hubby is putting in new walling,ceiling and raising it a bit. Old house, the upstairs is sort of narrow and barn shaped walling..

Meanwhile I have one kid on a couch, one on the floor, things down here that need to go back up there..... blink.gif They even have my big hex penned in behind all the lumber and sheet rock..... (Thats earmarked for the canna's. )

As soon as I can find a coffee table for my 30 gl, I've got the new filters coming in this week! Seems like I have so much to do and it never goes fast enough! The baby's are ready to come out of the 20 qt, but I'm waiting for the uv sterilizer to clean up the green water problem......... <insert me beating my head agaisnt the wall here>
