Hi all, Recently i ordered a lot of endlers and Spixix Snails off Aquabid. Well after about a day or two one of the Spixis laid two clutches of eggs on the glass of one of my tanks. So my question was:
is there anything special i need to do for the hatching snails, and how soon until they hatch?

You could put them in a breeding trap where the other fish can't eat em 2 weeks till hatchout

the eggs werent harmed by the fish at all, and i know they are the snails eggs, but i dont see any of the developing snails (they hatched in a week over night) the guy i bought them from say the babies livein the subsrate until they further develop? seems a it wacky to me, but what do i know!

i did notice that some of the ther snails in the other tanks are also laying, so soon i will have a plethora of striped spixis snails hopefully!
