cool new snails breeding in my tank
 
Just looked in the tank this morning and there were about 7 snails that weren't there yesterday. They are tiny.

They are Colonista Snails. They are know to breed quite readily in home aquariums.
I have a massive army of those that come out at night. :biggrin:

And no its not a baby astrea.
