    I thought those snails at KF are the same ones that's been there for ages? I think they're getting very bored in their plastic tank, always try to escape
    Oh, the rare old Whale, mid storm and gale. In his ocean home will be. A giant in might, where might is right. And King of the boundless sea.

    What I think you should do is to bring them for a walk whenever you visit KF since they are getting bored in the plastic tank

    By the way bro crandf, just to update you . A new batch of zebra just arrive 2 days ago and the price has just went down again

    No leash leh, what if they escape?

    But the snail I really want now is the porcupine snail leh... But Ian told me last time that the last batch were mostly empty shells, so unlikely he'll order them again.

    I know if I tell you this, you will probably kill me

    I was at KF a few days ago when the supplier bring the zebra and porcupine snail . So Ian ask my opinion on the porcupine snail and I told him since its such an ugly snail probably no one will buy it.

    So he did not get them but just when the supplier left, it came his mind that you want them

    Sorry, I should have shut my mouth

    Is Porcupine snail = Horn Snail ? I have a few of them. Like Zebra snail, they don't eat plant but they like to hang out on my moss wall and I thought I saw them eating my Moss

    Not sure what it's called exactly, but I'm talking about this Neritidae snail near the bottom of the page, green with spikes.
    http://www.applesnail.net/content/snails_various.php

    These other 2 quite big databases also dun seem to have it, although the Clithon Coronata seems to come pretty close.

    BTW, doesn't the Neritina Waigiansis look nice?

    Yes, It is called Horn snail. They are small an cute though not as effective as Zebra Snail.


    I saw them at Plantas but bought mine from LFS at Beauty World for $1 each.
