THEY EAT MY PLANTS!
Chad
Then ya got the wrong snails!
Some snails will eat plants by the bucketloads, but some are much more civilized. I have found that the specimen snails sold at pet stores are horrible plant eaters, munching huge holes in the leaves. Pond snails don't seem to do too much damage, but do eat plants. Although not native, my favorites are Malaysian trumpet snails . They eat algae and detritus, but leave the plants completely alone. They also burrow during the day, bringing the organic material into the gravel and pooping it out there.

and, what are these, I recently got these a few months ago, I noticed that they are completely aquatic unlike pond snails, and I havent noticed much breeding, if any.. I'm stumped on these....
They are rather cute, several times they have caused me to get mushy on them
and one of my custom pondies

How do you post multiple pictures in the same message like that, with text interspersed between the pictures? I only seem to be able to get the text before the pictures.

I use http://photobucket.com *PB* to host my pictures online..
Underneath each picture on PB there are 3 options, go to one of my albums to see what I mean. http://s9.photobucke.....Double Tails/ Then you copy and paste the IMG link to a subject here, or on any place that supports it, then you can write where you want , and post as many pictures as you want
Thanks for the compliments... I will make up a seperate post with some other colors of my snails

But you can't seem to post the pictures as attachments and control the order in which they appear, or put text between them. Can you?
No, you can't. The only way is to host them elsewhere and include them in your post as Katie did.

And I assume you have to keep them hosted elsewhere, or your link will go dead. They don't get uploaded to the forum server. Correct?

I like snails too, but it seemed like a lot of people hate them for plant consumption and the mess they leave behind.

That is what I would like to know also. People do it in e-mails to me all the time. I am kinda smart "kinda" but I have yet to figure this one out.
And on the snails I love them. But not when they infest a tank you otherwise do not want them in. I am starting to keep dwarf crayfish if that is what that thing is that I posted, and I will probably keep snails in the same tank. I wish to breed the crayfish but first I want to make sure it is indeed a dwarf. And to the person that posted all the pics and loves snails. Where do you gettum and do you trade with people from outside you area??
