	Can someone please help me figure out what kind of snail I have?
FISHLOVEME Banned Posts: 1 Kudos: 1 Votes: 0 Registered: 08-Jun-2005	Can someone tell me what kind of snail I have? It has a round shell, not pointy at all, and somewhat of white lines running up and down. They breed TERRIBLY easy also. I also have another kind of snail with a tanish brown shell that is pointy, like a shell you might find at the beach. I need to know what kind they are so that the petstore can tell me if they will give me store credit or not for them.

They breed TERRIBLY easy also that souds a bit like a planorbis sp. if i have interprited it right though my books don't display the real species only the genus cause if can be little bit contravercial as which is which species when dealing withthe lowre animals that haven't been studied nearly as much as the vertibrate animals snail with a tanish brown shell that is pointy, like a shell you might find at the beach this one sounds like a Melanoides sp.
