jaydawnsin Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 I got my plants in the mail, they look wonderful, thank you to cory and his team. I also got a little buddy in the mail that I'd like to be able to properly take care of. Can anyone tell me what kind of snail this is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shkote Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 This one is a bladder snail. You can tell the difference between the 2 species based on the direction that the spire (the pointed end of the snail) points when looking at them from the back end. Bladder snails point left, Pond snails point right. Bladder snails will stay smaller and have longer, thinner antennae. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
