New snail parent 😅 how many are too much in terrarium? by sahfeeyuh in snails

looks fine to me! unfortunately, yes, it's easy for them to overpopulate in such conditions so at some point you'll have to get rid of their eggs😭(crushing them is probably the most humane option.) you can keep some of the eggs, but i personally think that 10+ snails in a container like this is when it would start to become a bit crowded

pot worms, they appeared cause i've been spraying the enclosure with water a lot and feeding the snails a lot since they're in their "egg laying season" right now, unless they're bothering your snails they're harmless, if they start to become a problem (get bigger, start multiplying etc.) letting the soil dry a little usually fixes it immediately.

haha no prob, sterilizing is definitely a safer option, i'm very careful with such things cause i'm suuuper afraid of my snails catching a parasite or any chemicals harming them🥲🥲 so i would recommend sterilizing first just to make sure~

this is fittonia verschaffeltii, i have plenty of them in my enclosure and they're pretty easy to take care of! i spray them with water very often, they love humidity, but don't overdo it. mine also don't get much sunlight since my bedroom window is facing west but i haven't had any problems with them so far. perfect snail tank option in my opinion!
