    ok so i while ago i posted stuff about my narasis (SP?) snails the white ones that burrow in teh sand, about laying a bunch of batches of eggs, well they have laid a total of 15 or 16 i forget batches of eggs, a ridiculous amount, most people i told said they would jsut be fish food, the first batch was like what 3 or 4 weeks ago??
    well i just was lookng at my tank at night, and i found a couple baby snails, really small jsut getting their shell, but they survived!!!!!

    yeah, at all my local LFS (there are like 6 )they go for like $3 all of the stores sell them at that price, if all the eggs hatch (there were like 200-300 eggs a batch) and like 16 or so batches, thats alot of snails, i could pay for some equipment!
