Maybe its time to clean the tank ?
I'm not to sure, but when snails start to leave tracks on the glass it might be a indecation that I need to clean my tank
You can sure tell I have not cleaned the glass in a while.
If you take your time to do the research FIRST, you can successfully set-up and keep ANY type of aquarium with ease.

I've noticed that people HATE it when you point out how stupid they are, so now I try to do it politely.

Looks like the snail is doing a fine job of cleaning without you.
Brutal honesty will be shown on this screen
I think my fish is adjusting well to the four gallon, He's laying on his side attempting to go to sleep on the bottom of the gravel.
Smaug, you're here a lot just to say it's a waste of your time, poor baby, I bet you don't even know how big a loser you are, and how much we laugh at you and your foolish attempt to give your life meaning. Quit drinking, get a life, go take care of your family, grow up!

Haha that's awesome!
Mine was cleaning my powerhead and it got too close to the front and got blown off.
My Apple Snail did the same thing on my spray bar once.
Crazy snails.

Really neat patterns! I find snails fascinating. Love to watch them work. I'm always amazed when they are inching across the glass and I drop in an algae wafer, they actually change course and zero in on the wafer. so many biological triggers work in concert to support their survival. OF course survival in one of my tanks amounts to hanging around and waiting for me to feed them zucchini :o)

LOL, not matter how many times I told him he missed a few spots, he still would not go back and get them.
