    You'll keep us updated, right? 🙂

    I just came across this and I wonder if it could help you.

    This clutch seems hard and difficult to break?

    I believe these worms only free swim after substrate is disturbed. I just vac'd the tank; I've got sand so I go in at an angle to siphon the detritus only, but sometimes I do get a little bit of sand in the vac. Right after that I saw the worms swimming. About 30 minutes later I can't see any worms, so I assume they went back into the sand.

    In this video @ 5:04. Just like the worms I have. The guy says that they just eat decaying matter. @Colu and @Odd Duck ID'd the worms the same way. I'm going to leave them alone. Now I have a tank where EVERYTHING is a cleanup crew. 😂 Snails, plants, worms. What with the worms, this could be on its way to being a balanced ecosystem tank!

    I now have the worms that squiggle swim like the ones in @nabokovfan87's original post. I can't do anything about 'em. The tank is a grow-out tank for baby mystery snails. Snails can't tolerate meds, that I'm aware of. There are 31 baby snails in there. These appeared after I added Christmas moss yesterday.

    More land snails showed up today. I relocated them to shady front flower bed to protect from hot FL sun. I made sure they met each other ☺️

    He looks better from when you initially posted. He is headed in the right direction.

    Added some Christmas moss to the tank today. Asked a really great, clean, well maintained LFS if they’d like to buy snails. They had no interest. 🥲

    The one in the snail photo is nana petite, yep.

    Shortly after reading the first reply, I used the rub it on wet wood technique. I was skeptical at first, thinking, wouldn’t it float off, but heck, if someone else has done it successfully I will try it. 95% of it floated off… 😂🥲 I did glue some to rocks and some to driftwood also and that worked well.

    @Pennythis stuff smells bad. Kinda like Windex. Is that typical for Christmas moss?
  15. Chick-In-Of-TheSea
    I bought a little container of Christmas moss. How do you guys use it? Treat it like java moss?
  16. Chick-In-Of-TheSea
    I scrub them with a toothbrush and boil them @TeeJay. About 15-20 minutes. Also you can check if a rock is aquarium safe but putting a nitrate test drop on it (from bottle #1). If it fizzes don't use it.

    Oh yeah. Coal region born and raised. Yous guys too. 🙂 Hard to find scrapple down here (FL), but sometimes I can in the freezer aisle. @Guppysnail I saw him in the water before, but wow! He is HUGE! Shell looks great the whole whorl. Nice & healthy.
  18. Chick-In-Of-TheSea
    What kind of fish are in your future. And you know you need at least one snail. 😉
  19. Chick-In-Of-TheSea
    Poor fella. He's really having a rough time. At least he's got you. ❤️
  20. Chick-In-Of-TheSea
    I placed her on the zucchini.. TWICE. And twice she immediately left it to go clean glass. I just love your emergent plants @Guppysnail So beautiful.
  21. Chick-In-Of-TheSea
    No way. We just knew you were doing the ammonia thing and that would take some time.
  22. Chick-In-Of-TheSea
    They look healthy, yeah. Crisp. I got them a few weeks ago. Possible plant melt at the stem level, but if so that would have been eaten, I guess, so not sure. They get lazy, right? They wait for the handouts. Mine is usually on the sand, the glass, the heater, the driftwood. But not so much the plants.
  23. Chick-In-Of-TheSea
    This is what clutch 2 looks like. I do have snails of a few sizes. This clutch was laid 5/30. I guess I just keep it in there?
  24. Chick-In-Of-TheSea
    Well. They got in trouble. Bunch of floating petite anubia leaves floating at the top of the tank. And one leaf floating from the big anubia. Seems they've been chewing the stems? Although I can't "prove" anything. Well, regardless, I can't be mad. They're just too cute.
  25. Chick-In-Of-TheSea
    ? Do you put your glue on the plant before putting the plant in the water? Or do you submerge the bottle of glue and then squeeze the glue onto the driftwood, rock,etc? @sweetpoison tank looks nice. I don't think it needs the background? The wood forest is drawing my attention more than anything. I like it.
