I got tons in my tank too. Some came with the LR. I've been told that Turbo's make baby's like Rabbits.

My tank at work has snails all over it. I'm just waiting for them to get a little bigger so I can sell them and make my millions. Ha Ha

I hate to burst your bubble but they probably won't get much bigger :mrgreen: . They sound like collonista snails and they don't get much bigger then a 1/4", they breed like crazy though

At one time my tank had thousands of them they were everywhere! The population has now dwindled to a small amount, I think they ran out of food.

You are correct Marie, thats what they are . Atleast in my tank.......Thanks

yaaaaay my bubble is not burst it does not look anything like the one in the link im going to get some pic of them a soon as i go get batteries. The only problem is there so small and i suck at taking pics. I know my luck though there probably something really bad
