i got the freshwater clams already..
like what i said earlier.
you dun really get to see them..

for larger ramshorn.. where selling?

also, do you guys quarentine the snails?
read that snails are a good carrier and host for many parasites

hi bros,

i noticed more blobs of ramshorn eggs in the tank

how many hatchlings will there be per blob? in the 10s or 100s or 1000s ?

... coz in a blob, noticed it is 'seperated' to about 8-20 tiny 'bubbles' only...
