Poor Gary, RIP

Postby Silverfang on Fri Apr 27, 2012 4:32 am

I wasn't sure what to expect when I got him- he had been injured, a major crack in his shell... but I felt for him.
The stinker ate like a pig and seemed happy for months. I had him removed from the tank when the shrimp seemed to be picking on him, and he was content in the QT tub, especially when I'd stick in new plants with lots of shedding leaves.

His last few days were attached to a cucumber piece... I miss you dear Gary.

I'm so sorry, Silverfang. I'm sure you gave Gary as much happiness as he gave you.

Thanks everyone. Gary was the one who started my love of snails. He wasn't my first, but he was my most memorable.

So sorry to hear about your Gary. I have a Gary, too. Looks just like yours! Pretty little wild with unpretty shell damage. :cry:
