  • is it laying eggs above water????

  • yes right above the water line

  • i dont really know anything about them. I got some on a trade from a lady and then they layed eggs i have since sold them and dont have them any more

  • Isn't that a Golden Apple Snail? I have Black Mystery Snails but they don't do this lol

  • i dont think its an apple snail becuase it is not nearly big enough the pet store said it was a mystery snail. do you have a male and a female?

  • Thank you

  • @Willbaroo200 anywhere from 2-5 weeks. They will probably get eaten so if you have a hatchery, you can put it under where the eggs are so they will fall into it instead of getting eaten.

  • My apple snail has today laid her eggs on the hood of my cichlid tank! How long before they hatch and when they do will they get eaten? I have a video if the eggs check them out:)

  • I have a black mystery snail for about two years now and it just laid eggs. My mom is freaking out. I have no idea how to take care of them.

  • omg :( was i suppoesed to keep it there ?!!? i fell terrible ! because i thought they were supposed to be in water so they were hard and i scraped them off and put them in water (a cup of water from the fish tank) will they die ? there floating in water right now !!!

  • I just got in one batch of mystery snail babies well the snails aren't even an inch and they had over 50 babies its crazy and there is just two of them

  • Apple Snails and Mystery Snails are in the same family but they aren't the same thing. Apple snails get to be the size of a fist and eat plants. Mystery snails usually top out at 3 inches and don't eat plants.

  • @Koi5505 they have sells like golden mystery snails and i can see a slight small slit that looks like a trap door

  • @dpkcactus69 The babies in the cocoon above water will drown if thehy fall in the water. When the babies are ready- they will break out of the cocoon with hundreds of eggs and fall down in the water. They breath under water with speciallounges like fishes- but also have lounges that needs air- wich they breath right under the surface with their funny siphon :) Why it is important to have a air-space above the water surface in the aquarium.

  • @TempestCP probably a invasive snails- they look quite diffrent- Applesnails are "round" and "white" when really small - and invasive snails are like Oval. Pond, and Physa does not look like apple snails at all. Apple snail lay their eggs above the waterline and it takes about 2 weeks before the babies crawl out from it- you should notice that- from one to another day you suddenly have like 70-100+ snailbabies on the aquariumglass-bottom of the tank. Hard to miss.
