Wooooha! Now he is a monster! That is what I'm working towards - well feeding towards. How old do you recon he is?

Wow, that must be some very happy snails living in there. Looks great! I want to get a terrarium eventually, at the moment mine are in plastic tanks which are okay but not as wonderful as I would like. I love seeing photos of tank setups, thanks for sharing.

I see you have them near the speaker. Do your snails react to music?
I'm asking because my snails, big and small, make very grumpy faces or try to burrow quickly if they're in the same room where music is playing. Hence I have them all living in the bedroom for now.

I don't think they react to music, sure they can be grumpy but when i play music they are still as active as when i did not play anything!

All right, they must be more used to it or something I've had especially my wild caught Arianta react negatively to music. I think they find the way it makes the tank walls/foor vibrate somehow unpleasant. It's so odd to think that the cute little Tiger I just got is going to grow up to be like your snail there! Oh man.

Yeah, maybe they are used to it, or maybe they really like music! haha. I'm sure Ewert will grow just as big, if not even larger! Some more pictures Also one of my Reticulatas got eggs! hope she lays soon!

Love the photo of the Tiger snail looking over the washbasin edge, also the one of the retic's eggs waiting to hatch.

I wouldn't say he's little, but he's very cute! I like your tank setup, too. I'm thinking of getting a huge tank myself
