New snails with pics

Ummm, yeah. That's pretty much exactly what they look like right now. Where will they lay their eggs? I was reading on another thread that you shoudl take the eggs when they look like they're ready (whatever that means) and break them over a breeder box in the tank. Is that the case?
 
You will need to drop your waterline an inch or two or they will try to leave because they need a dry surface to lay their eggs on. My first 4 clutches never developed so I don't know if they are too young or what.
 
They lay their eggs above the waterline. Drop your waterline so you will have 2-3 inches space for them to lay their eggs. The eggs should remain damp, not too dry nor too wet. They should not be submerged as well as it will drown the embryos. Use a razor blade or a plastic card to scrape the eggs off. Do this 24 hours after it was laid so the eggs will have time to harden. Place the eggs in a box with damp (not wet) tissue. Eggs are best placed in warm humid conditions. The higher the humidity, the faster the eggs hatch. You have an option to leave the eggs stuck in your tank. Cover the tank. The female will only risk herself going out of the tank and then falling to the floor smashing her shell.

I had my cana eggs stuck in a bucket where I had placed my canas temporarily while fixing their tank. They laid the eggs there. I simply covered the tank with a few cm ap. Took only 8 days for these ones to hatch.

How long have the clutches been since they were laid? Where did you put them? It's possible they are infertile after five weeks and the eggs still having goo and rotten smell.
 
Its not a guarantee that they are male and female, but its a guarantee that the top snail is male. They are indiscriminate about the sex of their partners, lol. Could be two m ales or a male and female.

That's awesome, I'm totally going to use that as my example next time someone calls homosexuality unnatural. "Snails do it!"
 
Well, they were getting busy all through the afternoon today. They finally broke away from each other. Watching them made me want to have a cigarette...
