Hey, so, i haven't been on here for ages, but the snails are not doing very good.
3 of them are fine, Irony, Sprout and the no named newbie, but then my other two, Humbug and the other no names newbie, not good at all.
So, my school is making us do our GCSE in year 9 instead of year 11 (this Thursday), which is stupid , and i have been consentrating so much on that, that, sad to say, i have not been paying much attention to my snails =[
I opened up the tank today, to put the spagnum moss in, to find the tank in a right state! So i set about cleaning it up. I take the tank into the btahroom, only to find the snails in an even worse state. Last time i checked in the tank, Humbug was out and about, hanging from the tank lid, and today, he has gone. Unfortunatly, he has died =[ His skin was all white, with little white spot things all over it.
And the babyish snail, i don't know whether he is dead or not. He has been weak for a long time now, but today, when i showered him, he did not come out. And he absolutely reaks, now whether this is because he has been next to Humbug or not, im not sure, but he is not moving at all. He also did not respond to the Cucumber trick. I have tried giving him more warm baths, but no responce, not even moving at all. I have left him in a tub ontop of some Cucumber, to see if he moves just the slightest bit, but he is deeply retracted, only just visable. Does this sound dead to you, because i really don't know?
Help please.
Also, what do i do with Humbugs body? Bury or ...?
Thanks.
