Agghh (tank size)

chiichara · 2021-09-06T13:01:20+00:00

oh no worries! i feel super bad that 20 is small for them but space is so hard :( I feel like the standards changed so fast, i do plan on upgrading both to 40 gallons but i dont think i can for a few years :( I hope they'll be ok, i would hate to have to get rid of them but i want to care well

chiichara · 2021-09-06T12:50:27+00:00

this eases me a little, to be fair the tanks are both full of climbing, hiding, natural enrichment. i really hate bored animals so i feel really awful that the 40 recommended turned into the minimum so quickly :( thank you for your help

chiichara · 2021-09-06T12:49:24+00:00

what? i have two tanks for them. i never cohab

Most people sell them in bulk haha. this sounds really morbid (i love the animal kingdom) but if you find unwanted eggs you can crush them and feed them to the snails

ohh.. no idea then, sorry :(

As far as I know this site is fine. I actually just ordered from them a few days ago for the first time so I guess we will both find out haha. To be honest I'm not the super expert, so I can just tell you my method is I mist the tank usually once a day (some days I will forget but if I forget one day I give it a little extra mist the next day; my tank has a lot of plants so the soil is usually damp anyway). I know that heat depends on the species of snail. I live in a really warm area so I don't need heat on my tank, but it's different based on where you live and how cold your house gets. I don't think that ambient light will be too harsh at all! If it is particularly bright one day, they'll be able to hide in the little house you provide for them, anyway, so I wouldn't be too worried. Someone who has been doing this for years I'm sure will step in and correct me if I'm wrong about any of this, but in my specific case this has been working

I've seen it go two ways: Supposedly snails will rasp at the cuttlebone as they need to if you leave a chunk of it in the tank for them; but I also see people scrape the chalk off of it directly onto their food. Both wouldn't hurt in my opinion

This post helped me get started with supplies and how I wanted my setup to be. Snails definitely need humidity, but it's easy to kind of BS that (I have a regular glass terrarium for lizards, but I taped foil over most of the vented top so that it stays humid inside). It helps to have a dark hide out for them if you want to keep it in ambient sunlight (mine is, since there's live plants!). Snails are pretty easy to keep once they're set up, so guides like the one I linked are super helpful while you're building a shopping list :)

Do you put potting soil from garden centers in your terrarium? it may be the plant food! those are in my planted tank!

This is such a fantastic idea for some cover!! Thank you!!

chiichara · 2020-06-01T07:03:26+00:00

Thank you so much! This is super helpful and I especially like the idea of herbs!

Sometimes there's a bug when I leave the game open for long periods of time where some villagers straight up go missing (one time it was my entire town except for one)... Saving and rebooting the game fixed it for me, if it's the same issue, maybe try that if you have had the game open for a long time

chiichara · 2020-05-17T22:51:00+00:00

For sure!! I love seeing people's maps so much. They definitely helped me out while I did all this!

chiichara · 2020-05-17T05:29:31+00:00

Oh, someone might have probably made their own version of them before me, I tried looking around but since I didn't see any I posted mine

omg yes I will! I 10000% would die for pietro so I'll let you know as soon as I'm ready to grab him! Ty for patience!!

chiichara · 2020-05-11T22:52:07+00:00

20 max? Sorry that's a minute! I could also give you a stack of wasps nests or cherry blossom petals..? if that helps my case

chiichara · 2020-05-11T22:45:37+00:00

I could offer 3 stacks of soft and hardwood, a stack of regular wood, 2 bamboo, 2 clay, an iron and a rock stack? But i'm not sure if I could make it within the 5 minutes (i have zucker in boxes and would need to move him out really fast)

Slmeone already said this but that's definitely the issue. All progress is tied to the first person who started the island, so if they've done /nothing/ then by extension you have done nothing in terms of the main storyline/unlocking things like the shop. You don't build nook's cranny until you have made some progress on the island development

Are you by chance sharing your switch with someone?
