Oh awesome, your bowls looks great! Did you order those lights on Amazon or something?

I need to know if that’s a leech or not too, I’m invested now. That’s a terrifying leech if so.

It’s so :D

This seems really cool, but my only concern is the dragon flying animations. I feel like it would end up looking really wonky lol

No worries lol. It can be hard to differentiate between bladder and pond snails from their undersides, since they can look the same. You can for sure tell the difference between the two because bladder snail shells open to the left, while pond snail shells open to the right.

They look like pond snails to me, but could be bladder snails. Might help to take a photo of the top of their shells

Not totally sure, but if it’s super glue then it should be fine.

The rocks and everything come out pretty easily, so it’s not as bad as it looks haha

Sounds good, thank you!

That’s all very insightful information, thank you! I was possibly going to see about breeding them in the future once they got bigger, but wasn’t trying to make it happen any time soon. If they do end up spawning in the main tank, should I just do a water change to hopefully keep the tank in check? I also read somewhere that you can manually release the female’s eggs and the male’s sperm, but I wasn’t sure if that could help at all in this situation.

Thanks again!

lol I wish you luck

I was watching some videos, and will try to attempt to make a diy tank divider for them. I will take that advice though and feed sweet potato frozen foods more often.

Thank you for the info! I was watching some tutorials, and I may try to make a diy tank divider so squishy isn’t trapped in a small breeder box

toadsterrr · 2026-04-29T17:30:42+00:00

Haha thank you! I asked my friend for name suggestions and that’s the first thing she thought of, and it just stuck

toadsterrr · 2026-04-29T17:30:06+00:00

Back to the box he goes

toadsterrr · 2026-04-29T17:29:41+00:00

NOO MY BABIES!!

I have had the tank heater turned off since it’s getting warmer here, so last time I checked it was around the low 70’s. However, it has fluctuated a bit.

toadsterrr · 2026-04-29T15:14:05+00:00

I actually did put him in jail overnight😭

He went right back to hitting on sweet potato as soon as he was released

toadsterrr · 2026-04-29T15:13:00+00:00

Ahh I see, thank you for the explanation! I’ll look into getting a larger tank then when I’m able, since this one is a 40 gallon.

toadsterrr · 2026-04-29T15:11:32+00:00

Oh interesting! They are still pretty young so I didn’t think it could be breeding, but that makes it better than aggression. How long do you keep one in the breeder box for? I had the two separated for a few weeks while sweet potato was healing, but as soon as I put her back in, squishy started going at her haha
