I'M DONE!!!!!!

I like snails, too. Unfortunately my keyholes also like them. I have a few small ramshorn survivors but they are getting fewer and fewer. I try to rescue one every now and then by tossing it in another tank. I enjoy watching the little guys.

My small ramshorn snail Gary appeared spontaneously in a 2.5 gallon tank, and lived almost two years. At some point he moved to a 20 gallon and used to rocket from one side of the tank to the other. I couldn't believe how fast he could travel the length of the tank. As far as I know, he never reproduced. Then one day, he died, and suddenly there were more of them. I still like watching them but I've never gotten attached to one like I did Gary. :sad:

Sounds like a Charlottes Web story. He died and left you his offspring.

rofl Yes, it looked like he was just leaving a trail of slime on the side of the tank, but when I'd stand back, turn my head upside down and squint... it said "FABULOUS". :sad:
