It is definately an apple snail.

Doh! Forgot the most important part. :P It's definately an Apple Snail. I have 2 gold incas, 2 black mysteries, and one red one. It's in a 55 gallon tank that has never had any live plants and all the decore came off the PetSmart shelf and went through the dishwasher (no soap) so I know it...

I wasn't trying to make babies in my tank, it just kind of happened and now I have a little baby. I have no idea how old it is. It's about as big around as a pen and it's shell is hard. It's able to go to the bottom of the tank and move around, then it goes up top for an oxygen exchange...

I couple of points I'd like to expand on in my original post... First. None of the fish in the 50 gallon tank have nipped fins. This would lead me to believe that...though some other fish of these breeds are fin nippers...these paticular fish are not. I really don't understand why...

Pffffttttt!!! So much for something helpful. So basically I should take my betta out of his 10 gallons and stick him in one tiny gallon because...I don't even know why. The general rule is one inch of fish per gallon of water and a betta is generally 2 inches, so why would anyone in their half...

Ummm...Ok That was nice helpful advice. Thanks alot!

I wanted to see how mellow my Freddy was (Betta in a 10 gallon) so I took my 8 immature fancy guppies (11 weeks, 1 male and 7 female) and put them in with him. I had the scooper armed and ready for action just in case, and there was a big fat anti-climax. Freddy didn't even flair once. He...

:fun:

Apple Snails are quickly becoming my favorite thing in my tank. I have two gold incas, two black mysteries, a red apple and a baby apple. We call our largest gold Chester the Molester because he hunts down the others and 'slimes' them. I bought the red one from my betta tank but from the start...

Thanks for all the suggestions. :) I think Fred is on the passive side. He doesn't seem to get too excited about anything...but he's never lived with others before either. *shrug* I want to only get things that are compible with my community tank just in case it doesn't work out. The big...

Right now my maroon boy is all alone in a cycled 10 gallon tank. I was thinking about adding some other fishes but I'm not sure which. I definately would love some panda cories...any other suggestions?

I've heard that nipped fins can regrow when the nipper is removed. How long does this take? PS. I don't have any nipped fins, I'm just currious. :)

I just stumbled across this board. I currently have a 10 gallon tank with a Betta and a 50 gallon tank with a schoal of cherry barbs, checkerboard barbs, and neons. I also have 6 apple snails...gotta love apple snails. I'm still kind of new to fish keeping so I'll have a kabillion questions. :)
