14 seconds in and I had to pause and laugh.... “snex” that got me.
Hahahaha
I have a 90 gal that's all snails and I can't walk past it without thinking Snex now.
Seriously 😒
@@ImransWorld1 yeah seriously. Still makes me laugh as a matter of fact.
Oh come on man
I started with about 8 didnt know they breed so fast now I have about 50 anyone need any
Haha yikes! You can take the egg clutches off and freeze them for 24 hours and dispose of them if you don't want more snails :)
@@skye9850 looks more like I gotta new side hustle their currently in my 55 gallon tank with my Bali shark barbs and angel fish I was gifted a 150 gallon tank i.have to set up in the future any tips on pricing and care would help
I really need some

Nice
Crumbling the clutch is not what I would recommend! No one does this for them in the nature! That might damage their shells, which are still very soft. I've been breeding apple snails for almost 20 years. I would usually wait until they all break free from the clutch. Egg shell provides calcium for them , as they eat it.
I know that it is better to wait yes
Wanna help me cuz I still can’t manage to do it :(
Thank you for this information I rather for mine to hatch on it’s on
I have 3 and it’s my first time
How do I know if my clutch is alive still or not ;(
Apple snails? Are they not invasive
Thank you this was very informative. I'm currently trying to become a snail mommy. I have clutch that's going on 9 days old right now. I do wish you left the writing up longer. I had to pause to read everything.
I barely had time to pick up the remote and pause, I had to rewind EVERY time
How did your hatch go?
Letters were way too small and too fast to read😠🤪
@@KaloosaKennels I was doing the same lol
This would be a great video but you can’t read the text fast enough.
There's a thing called pausing the video XD
You can also hit the 3 dots at the top and reduce playback speed.
I can tho you can slow down the video
bruh
Too much time spent on "snex" and not enough time to read the text fast enough! Such good info and ya I get it you can pause but really annoying.
Omg I'm 12, i saw my snails going it and thoughts they were wrestling.... well until now. 😂😂
Best vid out there for mystery snail breeding! Quick question tho, it's has been almost 2 weeks and only maybe 2 look moldy, what is going on?
Hey snail caretakers! I wanted to let you guys know. Always check on your snails. I was on a trip, when my black mystery snail, decided to crawl out of the water. When I got back, his shell was dry and he had this mucusy stuff on him. I pushed him in the water and he didn’t move for 2 days even when I touched him. I put him in a hospital tank for 2 days and I checked the ammonia around him, and it was off the charts. He had died. My mom buried him and we payed our respects at the walnut tree, where he was buried. I had checked the tank water, and it was good, and my fish was perfectly healthy. So I guess that day he just felt like drying out.
So much writing
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
I have had this happen a lot,but then discovered that the snail was looking for a good place to lay it's eggs. Cause I put it back into the tank about four times, and it finally laid eggs on the underside of roof .But one other one did die from getting too dry😢.
It's hard to loose one! Even though I have a lot of room from the water line to the top of the tank, a couple weeks ago, I heard a crash behind my tank. I knew immediately what it was! One had fallen out of the tank and broken it's shell in half on the laminate floor. I was so devastated about that. I now have boxes and other soft materials to land on so hopefully that won't happen again. I have plenty of room for the snails to lay eggs. That was just a fluke. 🤔
that's awesome my snails just gave eggs and im soo damn happy 🐌🐚🥚
But that’s gonna be hard to take care of more snails
Hahaha me too. I was so excited.
Same here! I just found my first clutch. At first I thought my two snails were boys. Oops lol. 😂
Imagine you're having sweet love time with your wife and this giant just scoops you up. I'd be just like the snail, no point in stopping now! IM BUSSIN!!!!!
Thanks for posting! I cought my snails breeding today so I'm preparing for all the babies to come!
i have 7 clutches of eggs. i left them be to begin with, but one clutch is round 4-6 weeks old. So i have moved them all today a tub and floated it in tank. fingers crossed
I have videos of mine breeding finally going to hatch my own
The text is too fast. What do you feed the babie?
Help! My husband cam home with 2 mystery snails. Now we have babies. Yes they are super cute. But how can I find someone to take them off my hands? We have over 400 of them. Yes I counted. Lol.
Took way too long and printed didn't stay on screen long enough. Only saw 10 snails hatched after all that. Thanks for going to the trouble to make this video, but should have taken only half the time it did.
Do you put them in a different tank or the tank with the adults?
So we just gunna 18hours on the fucking and .018 seconds on the actual facts...ok.
Here's an idea...leave the dialogue box on screen long enough to be able to actually read it. Having to pause every time gets you dislikes on this video.
My videos and length of text on screens has gotten better since this video haha. Thanks for the feedback though! 🙃
Why don't people just let them stay where they are.
My clutch are on lid of tank. It's first time for my snails to breed. I'm going to leave them to hatch where they are without my intervention. Anyone else do that?
I put mine in a Tupperware bowl in a paper towel and stuck it in the tank. When I went to check the container was full of water and idk for how long? Maybe a few days? Would they still be alive? Of course I emptied it.
Very interesting, my 14 years old daughter also has lots of Ramshorn snails in her aquarium!
I learned the hard way ramshorn DONT need another to lay eggs lol. I had one that started out as a BABY in a breeder box for my molly fry. 3 weeks later the thing was 5x bigger and laid 9 clutches of eggs. Mollies ate some of them but 4 weeks later I have maybe a dozen live babies.
After just waking up this morning my aquarium lid was wide open and they are apple snake on the aerator tube that's for all what I can explain just have a good day
my snail is asexual. it just made like 7 clutches on its own
How do you know if you got all of them out of the eggs?
My mystery snail layed eggs. I keep hearing they need to be fertalized but mine did not. She's the only snail in the tsnk
Snails can hold sperm for a long time. She must have mated before you got her. Mystery snails cannot reproduce without a partner, but they can lay fertile eggs months to over a year after they last mated.
hey great video! just a question, do you know if when snails get older, their clutches are more likely to be infertile? or is it, in your experience,much the same rate no matter what age?
I have no clue honestly
My nail had babys a few weeks back i have t been home to realize it how long do i leave them sitting ? And how many weeks does it take for then to start hatching
It really just depends on the conditions. You can honestly let them stay where they are and naturally do their thing. Its hard to tell how close they are to hatching without a photo
"No spellcheck was harmed in the making of this video."
When you clutch dump your snails
one of my snails are packing😂
Do you keep a lid on tank to keep humidity in? Also what kind of lighting is needed for the eggs during process?
Yes, I keep the lid on. And a regular lighting schedule is fine
Okay so I got a question for you do the black dots in the eggs developed in the eggs ? And if so how long does it take for them to develop
I'm not sure how long that takes, sorry. They just get larger over time till they hatch
@@skye9850 okay thanks for that vid and same as your help
The tissue is wet or dry
Do the snails get sad if you take their clutch away from them?
They dint check on them as far as u am personally aware
I was a membery of a Facebook group Mystery Snails and Aquatic Lovers.
All started out well,then bang..for no reason given,I was blocked from posting and commenting.I never swore on the page,never got off color and always tried to help.I asked admin thru Messenger WHY I was blocked and got no reply.This happened twice. I left the group after filing a compldint to Facebook about harrassment...not that I expect any effort on Facebooks part to address the problem .Facebooks been a POS for the last 8 years. So...if anyone is thinking of joining a snsil group,I suggest hooking up with any other group besides the joke I mentioned above. Their admin,it seems is incompetent and a bunch of harassing twigs.
Hmm that's strange. I'm on a few mystery snail groups, I don't post often though. I'm sorry about your experience!
Nice vid.. which mystery snail groups do you suggest,?
I love it! I just can't read that fast
How😎
If I Leave the clutch on the side of the tank were it was laid, is it still as safe as putting them in an incubator?
Yep! Its really just preference, and it depends on what you have in your tank (if they will eat the babies once they hatch and fall into the water). Lots of people incubate the clutch in order to put them in a breeder box once hatched or a different tank. Lately I have just been letting mine hatch naturally on the side of the tank where they have been layer. Hope this helps :)
Awsome video! I learned so much thank you! Only one of my sacks looks like it’s doing okay but I never saw any black specks but now I see little white ones is that normal?
Yes it should be
Skye Gibbens they just hatched today!
@@alexisploskonka7114 yayy! Congrats! And good luck!
Skye Gibbens thank you!!!
Do female mysteries need time to recover from mating? My 2 females got down and dirty with my male a couple of days ago and haven't moved since. One looks swollen and unable to go back into her shell properly, the other is worse ( more of her out of shell ) I've never bred snails so really unsure if it's normal or not.
snex 🤣
It’s a snorgy
why does everything in this video have hair on it?
I only saw 1. Also lived in a home with multiple pets, including a dog with coarse fur, and some cats. Sometimes you can't control how much hair there is, especially if they are shedding. Sorry!
@@skye9850 OMG! Exactly. Both my Chihuahua's are blowing their coats. Hair comes out in clumps.
Will the entire clutch have same color of shell?
Most likely not, you could have a variety or more of one colour. Genetics to determine colours go back at least 5 generations so its hard to tell
My clutch fell into the water today I scooped it out but not sure if it’s to late or what to expect.. didn’t even know it was eggs until I looked it up just now.
I got my first hatchlings ever,1st time following several attempts
This Video is WAY to long
Sorry.
No one, but NO ONE forced you to watch! People are always complaining about things they actually have control of! Too long? Move on, damn!!
I greatly appreciate your effort, but you needed to leave the text boxes up much longer. I had to pause every time to read them. As a former Editor…you should read it to yourself, twice through, while editing. Thanks and no offense intended, hopefully constructive criticism.
I have improved this on newer videos 😉
I only have one snail and it laid eggs. Are they fertile?
Mine just gave to many beautiful pink eggs
I just watched snails have seggs this is weird
What is the temperature of the water?
Why the hell put any words up where you have to stop the video to read it? That’s ridiculous
Then find another video! Your complaint is ridiculous!!
I can’t read that fast, and I’m a fast reader!
"hooman. hooman, stop. this is - private - "
just realize my snails laid eggs, can i leave them on the side of my tank? or do i have to take them out?
You can leave them, depending on what you have in your tank the survival rate may be lower
I have an giant oscar in my tank. Im scared he will eat the eggs
So much for a tutorial the phrases are flashing so fast I couldn't read them unless I was super human I can't learn anything off of this video the shit needs to slow down !!!!
Sorry about that! Can always pause when needed! I've been working on my editing, and I know that I had them very fast here. If you have any questions I would be happy to answer!
You know the pause button exists, right?
You shouldent have taken them out when it was egg transfer
Sometimes I do and sometimes I don't, just depends. My snails always turn out fine.
I had my first clutch of eggs but unfortunately, it fell in the tank and the goldfish had at it :( I did not catch it in time, as I was not expecting it. But I also cannot have 100 snails in my tank!!! Can you control how many hatch? Like cutting the clutch in half? I feel terrible saying this, but... I would love to have a few more snails, just not so many. I am considering maybe getting a tank exclusively for snails? Do they naturally die off? How many survive per clutch? I have 3 snails and 3 large goldfish in the tank. (50 gallon)
I vote the snail tank I adore mine even more then my fish aquariums not sure about a half but I dont see it hurting to do so honestly if your going 2 toss half out anyway. However I do see the goldfish eating the new hatched since there so small.
As fot having a 100 snails in a tank you can trade them to your local fish shop for credit once there a bit bigger.
I have around 200 snails in all my tanks but I also have pea puffers to curve them out if need be. But my snail an shrimp tank is my favorite and oddly cleanest tank even tho it stays over stocked. The water goes 6 days before it even spikes up 0.25 from 0 with a 20% water change.
I love snails alot I honestly wasn't expecting too enjoy them this much. I think they have so much more personality. I only have 3 snails at the moment an I'm thinking about buying a few more since none of mine have laid eggs sadly :( I'm thinking about doing a puffer planted tank they are so cute
any tips on increasing ph??
What if u leave them in the tank?
Why take it out !!!!
Why dont you leave the tips on long enough to read?
So sorry! I could re-upload
great video
i just noticed my snail laid eggs, i’m not sure when to remove them because i’m not sure how long they’ve been there, its a pale pink color when should i remove them
Bobby McMahan your supposed to take them out after 2 days but I think I’m too late to tell you this.
You could also just leave them and let them hatch there and into your tank
Yes
I have singular white eggs scattered around my whole aquarium. But from videos they're usually in clumps...
You probably have a nerite snail - they lay singular eggs around the aquarium like that. The eggs won't hatch in normal aquarium water
@@skye9850 ahh that's it. Could you please tell me how I can hatch them? They're basically glued to the tank so I'm not sure how to take them out!
Apparently they can be hard to remove. But you can try to scrape them off. To have them you need to have brackish water (salter water) but it could potentially kill other animals you have in the tank. Best option is to scrape them off or leave them as some natural decoration haha
@@skye9850 ok thank you!
What small snails ( baby snail) eat?after hatching from eggs?
Dame thing as big snails
@@skye9850 what r that things my dear?
Bio film,algae, fish food waste detritus if your worried you can grab from amazon bacteria AE its for shrimp but it makes a bio film and helps them grow.
I find it pretty fascinating that you're intentionally breeding them while I'm trying to get mine to stop. 😆 🤣 if you want I could send you five or six bundles of eggs that look just like that.
Hahaha, I have more of ramshorn problem
Your lucky...lol I wish mine would breed. I think they were mating a month ago. But there are no eggs. Wanted to be a snail mom
@@jennifert6220 You trust me when I say this you definitely don't. Once they get going They don't stop.
@@garypatton3637 well I figured with mystery snails I could just dispose of the eggs if there's to many. I still would like to have some more 🐌. I could always give some away or even do a pea puffer tank an they would always have food. I also thought if I ever do have eggs laid that I would just break apart some of the clutch an try to only hatch part of it so there's not so many
@@jennifert6220 Yeah that's what I do I just tossed them in the freezer overnight.
Aren't these apple snails?
Mystery Snails! Similar species, but apple snails get much, much larger!
Is there a reason why the clutches I incubate, only the snails in the middle develop and hatch? The first time I thought it was just a one off but today the flat bottom of my clutch hatched open with lots of babies but none of the snails on top were ready or developing despite me seeing tiny dots. It’s super weird because I have tried incubating them a few different ways with the same result
Hmm, maybe there isn't enough moisture? I would suggest maybe lightly spraying the clutch once a day and see if that would help
are the paper towel wet/damp ?
Yes, just damp, not too wet
What do you feed your newborn snails?
Same as the big snails, maybe justa bit less, but also depends on how many babies there are
Thank you.
Hello, I bought one if these and I dont know how exactly to take care of them. Do I have to leave them on top of the water the whole time or inside the water?
How long does it take for them to hatch?
What do I feed them?
Is there any requirements like temperature level etc?
Hi! Are you talking about the snail themselves or eggs? Eggs you can leave out of the water until they hatch then the baby snails will need to be in water. It can take a couple weeks for them to hatch. They will eat what other snails eat (I recommend my video on making snello)
Mine hatched in about 2 weeks. Female laid several clutches and only 2 hatched. One was a week later than the other. When the 1st clutch started hatching, at first I thought she was laying single eggs below the waterline, but a couple of days later, I could see they were actually baby snails. I fed them canned green beans and they are voracious eaters! They've grown so fast, too. Time to get rid of some, even though I'd like to keep them all. Tried to count a couple of times and know I have at least 96. Local fish store said they'd give a dime a piece for them. Very cool experience!
I love having to pause a video to read to extract the information I want. It forces me to drop what I’m doing engage with my device. Love it 🥰
Like I've mentioned in previous comments, I apologize for the screw up on my part haha
@@skye9850 hey I’m jk around man
Neat but ill just leave mine where she puts them i doubt my snails will bother babies they leave my live bearing snails babies alone so think im safe right? Just snails and shrimp in this tank.
I want more snails but I do not want them to mate because that’s gonna take so much hard work,but anyways lots of luck to the people that snail’s gave birth and if you want snail babies make sure you are ready for them and separate the mother and father from the eggs too.
They don't 'give birth'.... they lay eggs. Giving birth is what live bearing is. Guppies, platies, dogs, cats, humans... give birth.
My question is…how do you get them to actually breed??
They do it on their own lol. If they are happy in their environment and stuff and you have a male and female of the right sizes, it happens
Why are snail eggs squish together
Why do snail eggs look weird
Just how nature made them to be :)
the video could be more stable i mean the camera is moving so much please work on it thank you 🔥
I cant read that fast!!!
