What Kind Of Snails Are These?

[gomezladdams]

Snail food? wtf? I didn't know all that... I thought they just ate scum and waste from the tank... What exactly should I put in there for them? Keep in mind they're in an oscar tank...

Thats why most peoples snails die. do a piece of something off this list at least once a week. theyll also clean up oscars extra food till he decides to eat them lol

Oh great list. I've been having problems with making sure my snails have enough calcium. That will be very useful. thanks.

Dang, my oscars love snails. they don't last more than a week in my O tank. They eat the antennea then the skirts then they crush the shells at the open end to get the leftovers.

GOOD Eats... not tankmates

I bought 10 black mystery snails for my oscars tank hoping he might not eat all of them in time and a few of them would get big enough to start kicking off young like crazy. Just to tick me off when he eats them he spits the shell at the glass, lol. He hasn't gotten all of them yet, but I know now not to keep them in the same tank as south american cichlids.
