People Weren't Kidding About Snail Bombs

hehe yeah snails have a "lung" which they fill with air. It is indeedy so cute when they do it Mine looked like they were sucking the surface of the water, then all of a sudden they would let go and float to the bottom of the tank.

I'm definitely going to get a pink apple, but after my holiday in a couple of weeks.

My snail Lorenzo loves to climb halfway up the walls and then jump off them, crash on the sand, then repeat. He once went over the fry cage, noticed the filter powerhead was blowing him away, he decided to sit there and get blown by the current constantly. It looked like a blizzard was blowing his horns towards his back. He sometimes digs himself a nest in the sand.
My other snail, Kadenza, eats every dead vegetation he can find, won't touch healthy leaves and usually sits on the sand.

Wish they had different snail colors at the pet shop. All they had were golden apples. And nerites and assassin snails. Also, I asked for Malaysian trumpet snails, but they said they didn't have any. Last time I went there, they had MTS in with the moss (and they had no idea), but I didn't ask them to put one with the moss. I kind of regret it, I could have gotten a free MTS.
