Default New Snail

I went to PETsMART and managed to pick up one of the rare ivory apple snails that get mixed into their shipments of golds, he's great. I want to change his gravel to black for contrast, Maybe I'll posts pics later.By the way, his name is Albert

Very cool. I have sent for 4 different colored Apple Snails cause the only color around here is the gold ones. So sometime next week i should be getting my shipment of 2 each of Blue, Ivory, Striped Pink and Striped Purple. I am very excited. I will post some pictures when i get them.

Here's Albert, I'm switching his gravel to black today, in these shots it's "natural"

Shell Shot

Climb, Climb!

Pretty cute, huh?
