Guest Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 We 've had our fish tank for some time, and haven't had new plant or fish additions for months. So why is it then, that we have a new little snail crawling round the tank this morning?! Where did it come from??! I don't understand! I thought they came in on plants?

Martin B Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 Maybe it was very small and has grown over time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motherhen Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 Teletransported from Venus as a response to Venus Express going into orbit yesterday - be warned - it may grow very large Seriously, very strange - I wonder if the eggs can stay dormant for a while?

PurpleHen Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 I don't know the answer - but I do know that used to happen to me when I had tropical fish - and I used to wonder the same thing I presume the eggs can lie dormat until conditions are right.... before you know it there'll be hundreds - well, lots anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
