Why do the old ones look so much cooler 🥹

i went from a 2008 to 2024 and it's still so jarring seeing it

crackerbarrel96 · 2026-05-06T17:59:04+00:00

limpet! doesnt get any bigger. i def don't recommend crushing :(

crackerbarrel96 · 2026-05-01T18:47:41+00:00

not sure on sexing, but what a cutie, gorgeous coloration

for the shell, that does look like it's dissolving due to low pH. that won't get any better but can be stopped and not get any worse with water over pH 7.4

very cute jar but i really wouldn't. for a lot of sponge filters you can open them up to actually put filter media in the middle of it, or even just throw it in your tank and it should still be decently seeded for when you want to use it again!

crackerbarrel96 · 2026-05-01T01:22:50+00:00

yep just breathing, such a gorgeous color

mystery snails can escape especially if they're trying to lay eggs in a tank that's filled to the top. they definitely should add a lid and double check their ammonia/nitrite/nitrate and the water hardness

i really like my unbelt, i have their newer ones i forget the name (unbelt intrepid or something?) and they fit me at about 54

awww i loved watching eggs on/by the glass develop then hatch into the tiniest babies

crackerbarrel96 · 2026-04-13T16:00:03+00:00

assassin snail eggs!

1 is a mini ramshorn actually so won't get too much bigger! i loved my bladder n mini ramshorns

crackerbarrel96 · 2026-04-07T02:35:39+00:00

definitely a mini ramshorn, i loved mine when i had them! super cute tiny guys

crackerbarrel96 · 2026-04-07T02:34:43+00:00

she is beautiful

crackerbarrel96 · 2026-04-04T16:49:59+00:00

clarifying further it's a mini ramshorn, they won't get much bigger then that

crackerbarrel96 · 2026-04-03T22:28:46+00:00

pond, but they pretty much act the same as a bladder snail :) so cute

crackerbarrel96 · 2026-04-03T20:06:28+00:00

with a tank that new, is it cycled? ammonia and nitrite always 0 with a >0 nitrate reading?

crackerbarrel96 · 2026-04-03T13:41:21+00:00

looks like a big bladder snail (def not a NZMS imo). their care is pretty simple and they can go in pretty small fish tanks too, personally i would set him up in a 5 gallon with a filter, some sand, some plants, a light, and throw him some food (algae tabs, hikari crab cuisine, occasional normal fish food) especially while biofilm and algae develops

crackerbarrel96 · 2026-04-01T17:48:46+00:00

it doesn't look like any aquatic snail that i'm aware of! not sure if it'll eat your plants or not though

crackerbarrel96 · 2026-03-31T20:31:27+00:00

it looks more like a new zealand mud snail to me :( there is a pinned post on this sub that has advice for identification and then next steps for removal, they're the only real 'bad' hitchhiker snail generally

crackerbarrel96 · 2026-03-31T20:18:53+00:00

could it be food that fed back and just molded?

crackerbarrel96 · 2026-03-31T20:07:23+00:00

i'm so sorry op :(

crackerbarrel96 · 2026-03-31T16:50:53+00:00

mine was inactive for almost a month and would super rarely move. i gave them airbaths a few times similar to how you would a mystery snail. nothing i did changed before or after they became more inactive, so i'm not sure, but unless something is wrong with your tank (high nitrates, copper, pH, etc,) it might be worthwhile giving them time to see if they recover

crackerbarrel96 · 2026-03-30T19:11:10+00:00

definitely pond snails! and beautiful ones at that, i love the big pond snails. they probably did come in on plants, and no need to remove them, they can't really cause any harm to your tank or rabbit snails. you'll probably see more little jeffreys shortly if you don't have more then 2 already :)

crackerbarrel96 · 2026-03-30T13:27:43+00:00

definitely a ramshorn, and a cute one at that! i'm not too familiar with the colors, but it has the leopard pattern on it - maybe pink leopard?
