This is just the video I needed! I have 3 green spotted puffers, an Amazon puffer, and 3 pea puffers. We go through A LOT of ramshorn snails
Glad you find it useful! Oh wow, that's quite a number of puffers you got there. They really do go through a lot of snails. 😆🐡
This is so informative! Great job, fantastic reporting!🌻🌼🐝 Keep it up 🙌
This needs more views. You should definitely be more popular. I hope you get 1,000,00 subs one day. Don’t ever give up!
Thank you so much! I'll work harder on producing more content! 🐡
How have I not come across your videos before?!?
Wonderful!
The music and presentation are excellent,and you are a delight to listen to.
What a great find!😊✌️
Thank you so much for your kind words and support! I really appreciate it. 😁
I have 10 coming for my 55 gal. It has guppys in it an I'm have lots if algey growth, excited to watch them. Blessings
Very helpful!
I’m also planning on breeding these to feed puffers, thank you for the tips 😊
I need to do this for my puffers haha! Great video!
I highly recommend it. The puffers will love you for it haha! Thank you so much. 🐡💖
This is just the video I didn't know I wanted!
Haha thank you for watching! Hope it's helpful. 😄
Very good video, thank you! I need to get some of these snails and try them out as feeders for my glow worms
Hope it helps! Oh wow! Never knew glow worms eat snails. Guess we learn something new everyday 😊
Cant wait for that snello recipe update !
It's in the content limbo haha 😆
I have clown loaches, and they will snarf down all the baby snails that I can offer. I have typical brown rams horns, and also the red/pink with golden shell. The pink ones are pretty enough that I made them a 1 gallon display/Breeding tank so I can enjoy watching them nom nom all over the place 😅
Thank you for this new interesting video and Happy New year! 🥂😊 - Ramon
Thank you for watching and a Happy New Year! 🎊🐡
Well made video
Wow awesome video. I’m about to set up a small tank to breed and raise these big enough to go in my goldfish tanks. Time to shop for a cuttlefish bone.
Thank you, you are awesome!
Do they need water to breathe or air?
Thank you for your helpful information video
Anytime! Thank you for watching! 🐌
Well done 👍🏼 🐌🐌🐌
Thank you so much! This was fantastic information 😁 New subscriber here!
Thank you so much and welcome! 🐌💛
I literally just have a 30l brackish tank that I keep my molly fry in, the snails keep breeding and breeding in there! I must have 100 snails in there with plants, wood, stones and sand. (They lay the eggs on the glass every time)
It’s strange you say salt and snails don’t mix but there very happy in brackish.
Ohh that's wonderful! What type of snails do you have and what's your brackish salinity level? That's very interesting! Nerite snails thrive in brackish tanks. 😄
@@BeFishy ramshorn at 1.005.
@@ScottPC Ohh nice! Low salinity doesn't affect them as much I see. Thank you for sharing! 😄🐌🐡
Sorry. 3:24... Cannot understand..
Adding what to the tank for the eggs??
Thx.
Is cycling a brackish water tank different from freshwater
The beta enclosure could work for grow out still small though
Hi can you take a look at my puffer fish that i bought and see if you can tell me what is the breed?,im confused if it is a spotted congo puffer or an ambish puffer😅
Any tips on how to remove detritus without sucking out baby ramshorns?
Is the name hewie from haunting grounds?
Very good video! I have a garden pond so breading snails was never necessary for me but this is still valuable knowledge. How often and how much water do you change on your snail ask though?
Thank you so much! Ohh, garden pond snail is the dream! It's an all-you-can-eat buffet for puffers haha! For my snail tanks, waterchanges are once weekly or sometimes once every 2 weeks.
Good information! I just subscribed. 😉
Thank you so much! Really appreciate it. 🐡🙌
I have a 1 gallon mason jar. I poured a half a liter of CLORINATED water right out the tap. ANYTEMP. Throw in 4 snails and a slice of cucumber. You'll have eggs in 3 days.
Carrots are very good for improvig color depth
Great video (";
I love Artemis!
I breed them too. But I have planeria in my snail tank 🤬 any tips on how to get rid of them?
Instead of the coral, can I add crushed coral?
Yes, crushed corals or coral chips are fine. Do be mindful of pH level elevations. 😊
@@BeFishy how much coral is needed and how high does it raise it ? I have one tank I can't get higher than 6.2.
@@juupiissocool With coral chips/crushed coral, you'll need to test the pH level with a pH checker. Besides crushed coral, you can also use products like seachem alkaline buffer to raise the pH level. It's much easier to track and get the right level.
What is the point of the breeder box??? I am failing miserably at breeding for some reason and starting over trying different methods.
The breeder box is just so I can breed them in an existing tank. Any container will do.
What is a Cycle filter? Is that what you call it?
A cycled filter is a filter packed with established beneficial bacteria. 😊
I know im 2 YEARS late but... I hope you ... or someone sees this so, Can different colored ramshorns breed? If so, would they make a new color, or pick one of the parents colors?Thanks
Ramshorns are very durable. Dechlorinating chemicals unnecessary, just boil the water and leave it overnight and it will be perfect.
Your ramshorns look protein-deficient. Those white markings on the shell are not indicative of calcium-deficiency, but a weak periostracum, which is the outermost, colored layer of the mollusk shell. The periostracum lays over the white, calciferous layer of shell; it helps to build as well as repair any damage to the main part of the shell by excreting mucous which deposits new minerals onto the shell basically.
I feed my ramshorns a mixture of spirulina powder, soy husk pellets, and dry mushroom powder (ganoderma and coriolis versicolor, but many kinds of mushrooms are good.) The periostracum in mollusks is composed of complex protein chains called conchiolin, which is analogous to chitin protein chains in fungal cell walls. Thus, I hypothesize that fungal protein sources are the most easily-accessible to mollusks.
Cuttlefish bone works the same as the coral; no need to double up. I prefer to find locally-sourced dead coral from hobbyist reef keepers. Both crushed coral and cuttlebones are harvested by ocean floor-dredging which I object to ethically so I do not prefer to support or subsidize those business practices.
I find that mechanical filtration is unnecessary and I use only a sponge filter and airstone for water flow and biological filtration. The most important thing is to keep their piles of poop stirred up like a compost pile. This provides the nutrients for your plants.
In addition, spinach is not recommended for a calcium-rich diet because while it does contain calcium, it also contains compounds which reduce and prevent the uptake of calcium.
Does the water of a pufferfish have poison? And is it safe to touch the water of the pufferfish?
It is safe to touch. :)
@@BeFishy sry for asking so many questions, so you don’t get confused, I’m gonna ask my questions in order. Is it safe to touch a pufferfish and does the water have poison in it? And if it does have poison in it, is it safe to touch? And if you don’t understand what I’m saying please just tell me. And again, I’m sorry for asking so many questions. Thank you for your time and have an amazing day 😁
@@gummytummy7260 Yes, it is safe to touch a pufferfish but I never recommend touching them as that can hurt their slimecoat. If you've touched them, make sure to wash your hands properly afterwards. And no, the water has no poison in it. It is safe. Poison and venom are 2 different things. With poison, if YOU ingest it, you'll die but with venomous animals, if THEY bite/sting you, you'll then die. And no worries! Always happy to answer questions! :D
@@BeFishy thanks a lot! Have an incredible day bye!
How do i purchase blue ramshorn snails?
Try checking your local fish store or online groups.
Loh, Orang indonesia atau malaysia?
I never see eggs- I just saw tiny snails ;-;
Thank you my puffers refuse to eat anything not alive
I literally had a ramshorn hop on some plants I brought home. I kept it because I was planning to buy some anyways lol.
I have some fry in a nursery container and threw it in to clean up the baby tank. We'll it's been 3 weeks. And the thing has quadrupled in size and I see 9 clutches of eggs on my tank. Smh. How??!! Lol. It was a BABY and now it's huge 🤣 and it looks like there 6 tiny dots already on the plastic container ? So are you sure it takes months to hatch ?? I barely noticed it today. I clean their box every 2 days for poo. And didn't see any eggs or notice until this evening. 😕
With the right parameters, once you have ramshorn snails in a tank, they'll start breeding like crazy haha. It takes some time for them to grow but because they breed so much, you'll notice different stages of snails in the tank. Eggs galore!
Lol...just keep your ph neutral. Thats all it takes 😅
