Hi
Now that the summer is starting, mediterranean snails start to aestivate.
I would like to suggest to people of this forum that´s keeping these species, mediterranean ones, that should start to reduce water spraying and food, until stoping giving that completely.
Then you can wake them after 2 weeks, with a bit of spray some food, and then leave them to aestivate for more 2 weeks.
This should be done until October.
With this you waste less food, water and time with them, and the snails bio-rythm that´s used to those conditions has also some benefits.
They may lay eggs on the autumn when you wake them up!
I hope this helps!
Take care.
