Johnny B. Goode Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 So, about 3 months ago a LFS gave me a bag full of trumpet snails. I put them in my tank and for the first couple weeks it was cool. I would see them from time to time popping out of the substrate or cruising the glass. Then..... Nothing. I thought they must have all died for some reason. Then today I'm passing by my tank and I see a couple tiny white spots on the glass. Upon close inspection I notice its baby trumpet snails. Then I start looking closer and realize an explosion is coming out of the substrate. I counted 35 in total before I stopped. I guess they didn't die after all. Do they breed in the substrate or something? Sorry the pics are blurry. It is very hard to get my camera to focus on something that small. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GardenStateGoldfish Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 They give love birth and the babies usually collect at the surface of the water and float their unless you have crazy high flow. You won't really notice them unless you turn on the light in the middle of the night, they are an amazing overnight cleaning crew 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
