[quote]This is what happens when you don't check every week for eggs, you get an awful lot of baby snails hatch out. Although I did quick cleans of the tanks the last couple of weeks, I didn't actually have time to empty them out totally. I did a thorough clean yesterday and when I looked underneath the food dish, there were lots of baby snails on it. And, I found more eggs which I promptly froze.[/quote]
Opps! How many snails do you have now? Or is it an uncountable number.
So snails are smart enough to hide their eggs. I am sure lots of people would want some. And as you say, good thing you have new tanks coming.
I am glad your husband thinks it is funny. Will he still laugh when you are knee deep in giant snails.
Well, there is the 4 adult snails that we started out with, there are 10 baby snails which we hatched out, so that's 14 for a start. I have tried to count the latest hatchlings and there is over 60 in there
The new tanks came today but I haven't had much chance to move them in. I will do that tomorrow
