I was told they need to be out of water to reproduce.....when I got mine :unsure:
However, they all died and now I have MANY baby ramshorn snails.....dunno how many....too small to see them all :p

Chris :ninja:
 
There are 2 different types of ramshorns. They type in the picture is not a true ramshorn, it is an apple snail. Ramshorns are smaller, have no trapdoor, and no stripes. The Columbian Ramshorns (above pictures) lay eggs underwater in 'bubble' sacs. I've got about 100 of eggs, that I am hoping will hatch soon. :D
Columbian Ramshorns (aka marisa) are a very good snail. The others are breeding machines. A good place to go for information and possibly getting snails like the columbian ramshorn, is www.applesnail.net
 
Exelent... any one want to come and sort out my favorites menu?
I'm sufficating in good links.
