snail are easy to have they like higher -- ph for the shells


well water temp is easy to
higher the temp fast they act and will die faster

colder they are slower and live longer


very easy to take care of

Firsty,

to the forum!!!

Secondly ask urself...Would u want ur tank to be flooded wif snails or do u just want to stick with a few??

Cause most of the snails can reproduce like mad as u onli need 2 snails to breed without a male and a female cause snails sorta have a male and female reproductive oragn... and some like apple snails need a male and a female to mate and the eggs are easily removed as they lay them above water....
