Well I am looking for a snail and don't know much so I would like some input. I want something that I can see during the day and has a little more personality that my mts. I want something that won't multiply to be a nusience, is fairly patterned or colorful, won't eat my plants, and won't be bothered by my fish and shrimp. I also don't want to buy one that costs as much as my tank so keep that in mind.
My tank has around 12g water, it runs at anywhere from 80-88f. It has a fluval 2 running 105gph
As for the water is ran through a watersoftening system but if need be I can supplement it with water that has not been through the system and is 14grains hard. We also have a Reverse osmosis system. I am no expert on water and would like a little info on what is best to use, all I know at the moment is that I mist it with RO water so it won't buildup on my plants and glass. I don't know the nitrates or any of that either. However my Mts have grown quite rapidly since I got them and they have beautiful new shell growth so I assume my water is not too soft for them.
I have 8 glofish a few ghost shrimp and some Mts, some "nana" anubis and some java. I don't want a giant snail though. the largest I would want would be quarter sized. I saw a snail the otherday but can't seem to remember where at, I belive it was called a zebra something and was very pretty.
Anyhow I just want some info on snail keeping and what would be a good snail for me.
Oh this is off subject but msjinkzd you have some really cool hair, not many girls pull off the punk look well, especially where I live in kansas so its nice to see someone who can pull off a mohawk.
