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 . 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.
