I think you should sell some of the snails or give some of the snails to some pet stores.Also where do you find the snails at the pet stores?Every time I go to the pet store and looking at the fish section I don’t see any snails.

So, you ended up with a pest animal you didn’t want but still purchased the ideal setup to care for them properly. Meanwhile some people buy animals they do want and... don’t? You’re the best!

Oh Lori, you're so compassionate. Most people go to extremes to rid their tanks of "pest snails". And then there's you, who goes out of her way to build them a special tank just for them. I watched a video some time ago by Life With Pets (fantastic channel if you want to learn about bettas!), and they prepped their live plants by dipping them in a diluted bleach solution. The ratio was something like 19 parts water 1 part bleach. The plants were dipped in that for a few seconds then rinsed. They did this a few times, and it got rid of the pests on their plants. Good luck with your tank!

I had pest snails in my tank the best way that doesnt leave them in pain is to remove fish and empty the water then add hot water and 1 cup baking soda and 1 cup salt salt and they die instantly or just hot water i used salt and baking powder because there were thousands of snail i got really depressed after all my fish of old age and so i had the glass complete coverd w snails my filter was also covered in snail most people who have been through depression knows doing things get really difficult so yh hot water kills them instantly because there tiny its cruel but needed to be done

Snails were always my favorite part of our fish tanks growing up, it makes me happy to see the little guys getting some love!

She talked about that in her vlog video. Essentially the snails came in on her plants and she didn't know it so she added them to the tank before it was cycling. Keep in mind that tank is still not cycled and then she moved them to the snail tank. Since the other tank was never cycled to the beginning, pest snails, and hardy she made the decision to just get them a tank and "throw em in." But yes usually you wouldn't want to do that.

Brandy Weaver I recommend you both stop feeding insects and fruit until they eat a crested gecko diet. Pangea or Repashy. They will develop metabolic bone disease if you don’t, they aren’t getting everything they need. A healthy gecko will not starve itself. Offer multiple food dishes with multiple types of flavors. Pangea Insects is always a hit with our geckos - Repashy never works lol I’m a reptile breeder so I’m not talking out of my ass. I’ve got dozens of crested geckos. A trick I did with one of my problem geckos was put the cap of food to his face and make sure he started eating it. Then I would set it down in a place that he could see me doing it - so he knows that that is his food and he knows he already likes it. Any time I do it my problem gecko finishes it every time.

snails eat algae and waste, along with stuff like carrots, fish food, and lettuce, so they are kinda self-sustaining but once the water gets mucky, I would recommend turing off the filter, removing most of the water, add more water, and re-prime it and turn back on the filter. I owned a snail once with goldfish *NEVER DO THAT, THE GOLDFISH WILL EAT THE SNAIL* and I cant remember cleaning the tank ever since

I think the two tiny ones could be gyraulus acronicus. If they are, they are fully grown already. They are interesting creatures, their shell lies flat on their body instead of being vertical. I love snails and keep them in all my tanks :D

Yes, please do keep updates on the snail tank. It will be interesting to see how they populate. If it doesn’t turn out so bad, I might start one for my next tank.

Hey Lori! Great video! Your tank looks so gorgeous ❤️ I had a serian hamster named Bear, he was so tame and sweet and unfortunately he passed away last night.

I am so late to the party but am planning on doing this just now. Apparently a few bladder snails hitched a ride on my mystery snail I added to the tank a couple weeks ago. Found three bladder snails yesterday and I want them out but don’t have the heart to kill them. Going to pick up a 5 gallon tank and move them out of the 10 gallon with all my fish. May eventually add a beta to the new 5 but for now it will be just these three snails I never wanted lol.

You can use something like Tetra Safe Start Plus to instant cycle a tank. I have used that in every tank that I have and I have never had any issues with fish dying. Now it;s good to use it with something like Prime, as that will detoxify the ammonia and nitrite, but 24 hrs after Prime, dose with TTS+ and add a couple of fish and yo are good to go! Walt 14 days, do a water change and you should be all cycled!

I have no gravel or stones or anything in my snail tank. Since I have babies in my tank, it would be super hard to vacuum gravel without sucking up babies that are not on the sides of the tank. They blend in too easily. Now I just do water changes and use a turkey baster to suck up their waste, knowing where the babies are. :-)

Old tank water works really well to help cycle a new tank faster! Also when putting rocks in you should do it dry and then pour the water over a plastic bag that the rocks came in so you don't risk having murky water. It helps a lot!!

Tank water doesn't do anything to help with the cycle as the bacteria does not live in the water itself. The bacteria lives on hard surfaces.

I love your video. You are the best.

You can also put in a green bean. I bought a bag of frozen green beans and I take one and drop it in the tank. The snails all love it. It always looks like a pack of very slow moving ravenous wolves on that bean... lol

I just saved around 10 snails from a drying river and this helped me SO MUCH I'm giving 10 adult snails and a beta fish (yes they can live together if well fed but if either of them aren't feed good they can and will eat each other so I will watch and separate them if needed) a 10 GALLON TANK.

I also currently have a snail problem with my new 20 gallon... Now I plan to get a pea puffer tank.

I bought algae and it had snail as well as dragonfly eggs on it. Didn't notice those at first tho. When I randomly threw a leaf into the tank I noticed that something's eating it and I spotted two snails. One week later I had like 10 if them. Then I saw the first of two dragonfly larvae and I killed It because I thought its gonna eat my snails. Spotted the second one and killed it as well. Few weeks later I'm a proud owner of 20-ish snails. Do have an ammonia spike right now tho because I think I threw in too much food or something. I tried feeding them some cucumber slices. Probably only needed to throw in a very small chunk. Be careful not to overfeed. Have a great day (my first experience with am aquarium btw and u didn't inform myself beforehand)

Since she didnt answer back I will, 1.5 gallons will be fine but the bigger the tank the better since snails produce a lot of waste.

Pest/bladder snails are really good algae eaters so it’s kinda a win win situation if u left them in the fish tank. And u also need algae wafers if the tank isn’t cycled or has algae. It’s good for them😁 And u also need a oxygen pump because they have gills they breathe oxygen ull kill them if u don’t put a oxygen pump Unless u change 3/4 of the water everyday but u won’t have as much algae☺️

For a while I have kept snails as a pet and I have came to the conclusion that for 1 snail you should have 5 gallons. So, the amount of snails you are putting in there won’t be able to stay in there for a long time because they will get big. So it’s just a recommendation but I think that you should have have tanks ready for them once they get bigger.

I have two big spike topped apple snails and one of them is the size of the palm of my hand. She (I say she becauss when they mate female is on bottom and shes always on bottom) produces a lot of mucus and kinda traps my malasian trumpet snails, my bladder and my ramshorn snails in her snail slime.. I dont want to put her in with the little snails but i dont know what else to do for her. Shes got some shell damage from the others eating at her shell for calcium (even though they always have cuttlebone) and i dont want her to get more shell damage or hurt the little guys. What do i do?

I learnt how to make my own calcium powder from Steff J. She saves all the eggshells (if you eat eggs save the shells, if you don't eat eggs try asking someone to save the shells for you!) She saves up a good amount then boils them to cleanse. Boil 10 minutes from water's boiling start then strain. Bake for 2 hours at 290°F and once dry throw them in the blender. Make sure EVERYTHING is dry so your powder doesn't get moldy. And now you have your own calcium powder 😊
