Yari Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 (edited) I woke up one morning and found this baby snail that had the body of ramshorn snail with pale pink skin and the shell of a Ramshorn snail but smoother and had the same color and stains of a bladder snail.

Administrators Cory Posted February 18, 2021 Administrators Share Posted February 18, 2021 All the snails in the picture to me look like ramshorn snails. They can be pink or brown in color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDoc Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 Additionally, the "leopard" pattern is fairly common in ramshorn snails. That's what makes it look kind of like a bladder snail like you are seeing. I love the color mix you can get from them. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celly Rasbora Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 The one on the bottom right looks like a bladder snail to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philip Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 I wouldn't put anything past those buggers. You get one and think it's cool, next thing you know you're pickin' 'em out by the handful for the next year and a half until you never want to see another one in your life.

jefferypink Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 If I find it again I'll have to take a pic, but I found a lesser ramshorn snail whose shell wasn't a tight spiral, as if it had hybridized with a pond snail. It was cute, like a small conical swirl that looked like a soft serve ice cream spiral, slightly conical in shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
