Some good supplemental food for Ramshorn snails are: Tetra PlecoWafers (Pro version contains cellulose as Plecos need cellulose for digestion.) Tetra Bottom Feeder Tablets (As of November 2019, these specific tablets have caused algae to bloom in one of my 10g Communities, feed at your own discretion.) Hikari Algae Wafers.
109. Oct 17, 2021. #1. I *accidentally* got a hold of some pink ramshorn snails and decided to do an experiment to figure out if they are indeed capable of asexual reproduction (as not ALL hermaphroditic creatures can self-fertilize). Background: I knew it was a possibility to receive some ramshorns with some new floating plants I had ordered ...
Jan 2, 2019. #5. Snails are prone to shell issues (calcium deficiency) when kept in overpopulated conditions. It probably was in a tank full of other ramshorns before you got it. It won’t return to normal but hopefully any new shell growth will be the usual rusty brown/red. OP.
Feb 12, 2019. #1. I just got my new ramshorn snails in the mail and I started drip acclimating them and one started floating is it dead. Advertisement.
They actually can reproduce by themselves. They are hermaphrodites, which means they have both girl and boy parts and can reproduce with only themselves, though they prefer the other option, they certainly can and will with just themselves. Edit: Though you shouldn't worry. Even if there is a snail baby boom, they die off until there is a good ...

Jan 7, 2019. #1. I've had a Red Ramshorn in my 2.5 gal cherry shrimp tank for a few weeks now. He's gradually gotten less active over the past week or so. Initially, I thought he was having trouble with the substrate (it's National Geographic Substrate, kind of halfway between sand and gravel, almost like teensy gravel).
First, I used a gravel vac to clean most of the waste off of the top of my sand. Then I stirred up any sand that I could without loosening up my sparse carpet of micro sword, and did a 50% water change. Finally, I started crushing any snails I see, so far I have killed about a dozen of the minI rams horns.
I started with 3 Assassin Snails for my ramshorn invasion in my 100 gallon tank, I'll just say the feed well and reproduced. At one time I sold off about 30 of them, now that they don't have other snails to hunt the numbers are steady at about 7 or so in that tank. My 150 gallon also has about 7 adults, and the 55 about 5 adults.
2,570. Jul 7, 2013. #8. Any snail would live in cold water, even mystery or apple snails. But the question is, which would live well in cold water with goldfish. The answer to that question is trapdoor or apple (cana) snails.
