Did My Mexicans Have A Baby

i noticed a tiny snail before work today, it was about the size of one grain of my sand, it looks like it hasnt hatched that long ago? could it be another mexican.
i hope its not, as they poo too much as it is.

Do you have any pics? it's possible, though somewhat unlikely. And keep in mind there is a pretty good chance it will get eaten before it gets big enough to actually help with cleaning your tank.

Without a pic there is no way to say for certain, but odds are that it is actually a Collonista snail or some relative. Turbo reproduction is pretty rare and the vast majority of cases where people think it has happened turn out to be just Collonistas.

no i dont have a pic, it was this morning just before work, lights were out and i didnt have time to.
but it was just so tiny it cannot be from the LR, unless there was a egg that survived?

Collonistas are tiny...a big one is the size of a pencil eraser, most are smaller. I have hundreds on my rock that come out at night.
