Awesome. I saw some "Red Ramshorns" for sale on AquaBid... The looked really red in the picture and I'm not sure if they just did that with PhotoShop or something. I'm interested to know how your will look.



I'm not your neighbor, you Bakersfield trash.

Cory Addict,

I bought some Blue & Purple Apple Snails from the UK & they looked really Colourful in the pictures, but where quite different when they arrived.

I picked them up tonight from a local contact.

They are definately red ramshorns, they are not the bright rudy red like the ones in aquabid at the moment.. Maybe they'll color up more once they've settled in, or maybe photoshop was used... I dunno.. But they breed true according to the source, and eat algae, not healthy plants. That's all I needed to know

I'll be breeding and selling them too, once it gets warmer, although not for the price you see on aquabid.

I knocked 3 of my Wanted Plants off my list and bought another pair of apistos too at a couple stores I hit today. Been a busy one ! Whew !!

I'll post a pic of them soon k ?
