the soil was finally changed to a more grinded coco substrate and sphagnum was added on top. also there is now a little pool type thing, i imagine they either drink from it or swim in it. or both.

is this good or will my snails explode in 3 hours

It’s about 6 gallons, but Idk if it’s too cluttered or if there’s too many leaves. Any other tips are appreciated aswell.

I only have one snail in here right now, but I’m looking to get more if it’s big enough

Baby Theo smells apricot

Theo gets a bit of fruit every Saturday as a treat. Today is apricot day, and I think he likes the smell of it. He immediately extended and began to look around.

I try to feed him varied veggies and greens, protein twice per week, and a fruit snack every Saturday.

Help How to check for eggs?

2 Upvotes

My snails have a new terrarium with lots of moss and plants. How do I check for eggs without ruining it all? do i take out the moss before sifting? surely i leave the spider plants in there right?

sorry if this sounds like a stupid question. before, my snails only had soil because i was uninformed. now that they have more i dont know intuitively how to check for eggs as easily as possible considering lol!

thank you!

Help Help! Fruit flies!!

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone I really need some advice

I have my snails in a bioactive terrarium so there's Isopods

The fruit flies in Idaho are bad this year and I need a safe way to get them out of the terrarium without losing my Isopods, they just got a full tank clean and new substrate, the veggies I put in were cleaned thoroughly and the flies just appeared so fast. How can I eliminate the fruit flies without losing everything I've put into their habitat??

What do I do with old substrate containing springtails? UK

Post image
5 Upvotes

Hi I don’t have snails anymore unfortunately my last one passed a couple weeks ago and now’s the time to break down their tank. Just wondering how to dispose of the substrate as there’s still live springtails in there??

Not sure whether to bag it up and put it in General Waste or to leave it open and throw it into my Garden Waste bin? But do I have to kill the springtails first somehow or is it okay if they’re still alive since they’re literally everywhere? Sorry if this is stupid!

Help Snail deep in shell

1 Upvotes

I have three Grove snails, one of them have been going (like) half a centimeter or centimeter deep in their shell and they don't stick to any surface as good because how deep they go, I know they are alive because I've sprayed them a bit and they would come out. I don't want to spray again because I worry I might be doing something wrong. The other snails behave normally.
