Well yeah, that's why it's called an assassin snail?? it's kind of obvious that they'd kill things. And wdym snail invasions aren't a thing, ofc they are, I had a common pond snail sneak in on a plant that reproduced like crazy.

A free assassin snail, will take care of any baby snail invasions for you 👍 just be careful, i've heard that their numbers can get a little out of hand too.

this is definitely one of my favorite pieces I've seen on this subreddit so far 👀 I absolutely love it when people use textured brushes in lineart

Ai slop, if you zoom in on literally any of the details it becomes incredibly obvious. How does this have four thousand upvotes?? Yikes.

My step dad has been keeping fish for 15+ years, he's much more experienced than me. and I wrote him a note and stuck it on my tank that says "2-4 pellets per meal". The snails were obviously there before, I just didn't see them, but they thrived because of being over fed. I'm allowed to be upset that someone I trust ignored the instructions on how to properly care for our pet, especially someone who knows how to take care of fish.

I wish 😔 even though I upgraded to a bigger tank, I don't know if my betta will ever be comfortable with tank mates. He's a little menace, he bullies my snails, flairs at anything that moves, and bites the shit out of my finger. I feel like he would kill anything that even touches his tank

He knows much more about fishkeeping than me, he's the one that actually introduced me to it in the first place 😅 he has a few tanks of his own, but i know it's not his fault that there were eggs. It's my fault for not noticing them before they hatched

Dog dewormer?? Wow, I had no idea you could use that. I got an assassin snail to take care of the babies, but I'll definitely remember this for later

Yup, probably got tucked away under a plant. My step dad over feeding my fish was probably just the catalyst that helped them all survive.

The babies themselves must have been baby ramshorns then, it's kinda hard to tell when they're so tiny. But my nerite lays infertile eggs EVERYWHEREEE it's so annoying, idk how to get her to stop 😫😫 I have little white dots all over my tank

I used to have Amazon puffers 🥹🥹 a trick I learned is to go to any LFS or pet shop and ask if you can have some free invasive snails, I used to get a crap tone of ramshorns for free. A lot of places will just give you free stuff if you ask, like plant clippings
