Astrea snail baby?

[Marinne13]

I didn't think snails reproduced in tanks but I have a pea sized snail with a pointy shell on my glass

it has the snail tenticles seperate body and mouth, could it be?

I'm surprised you are only seeing one baby. I have read about people having snail explosions before...

I know its weird...its not a collonista snail because the shell is pointed and solid in color

That would be an awesome name for a band! :bounce:

Ive had astreas reproduce. Also ghost shrimp (which arent known to captive breed), bristlenose plecos (difficult) and various tetras/danios/labyrinths.

I have had a snail baby blowup a few weeks ago, I can see like 6 of them around the tank real tiny! I have read that it CAN become an issue but at this point I am not worried. Maybe you have baby snails as well and just have not found the others?
