Re: Shrimp keepers be careful with this snail

Yep, it's that snail. These one are really big, twice bigger than the shrimp.
My shrimp was healthy and I only see one exoskeleton at the moment. Ammonia,nitrite is still 0.
First I saw the shrimp was still sitting in plants but then when the snail came, I thought it was just passing by so I look away, after a few min, I saw the shrimp was struggling. It moves rapidly exactly like the way when it got chase but couldn't get away from the sticky snail. I tried to help it by picking the snail up but the snail won't let go until I took both of them out of water. The snail is already dead and it's really soft at the time. a piece of red skin under the head was missing and show white meat there.
