These are my two new purple bridgsii snails. :) They're probably about the size of a golfball.

They're so big that I'm worried that they're going to mow over my shrimp lol

The first two pics are the individual snails. The third is one snails hitchhiking on the back of the other. Guess that they got some bonding time in transit.

Thanks everyone!!! Ummm, the one that was riding on the back of the other has now circled around and is near the opening of its shell. Not sure if any of that made sense :) Are they about to get busy?
 
They are about to get busier than you probably want them too. LOL
 
Woah. I guess that I have a male and female then. That'll be the most action that my house has seen in a while :)
 
Like these? LOL

Yup. Copulation. You'll have eggs in no time unless both are males. I had one male gold brig copulating the unsuspecting nerite. Poor nerite had to shut its operculum. The brig gave up and transferred to a nearby female.
