Ugly Brown Palys for Free

Yup. It was one of those 5 gallon-ish Picotope tanks. A ton came in on a local shipment and I grabbed up some if the big ones for my hitchhikers guide. Then I wanted pics of their eggs, so I gave them a tank. They really are quite stunning.

 

very cool snail for sure, there are a lot of cool predatory snails. Hairy tritons and crown conchs...I know a few people who have been keeping some of these guys. I like Gaudy Naticas for a tank like that. Eat other snails and clams, but if the other snails are predators too they usually become meals. Not your usual hitchers though...

 

I got my ugly brown palys today.

I think you might have sent the wrong ones though, these ones have a little green to them.

 

i think if they were the neon green ones you would know for sure, but I think that is the ones. They may color up, I had them under only actinic light and they went a dark brown but were a little nicer prior to that.

Still ugly....

 

Well they definitely aren't neon green more of a hunter green.

I tried to take a picture... as you can see I don't have KC's photo taking ability either. I took these pictures when they are still new to the tank and hadn't opened up entirely. I think they got a bit more green as the day went on.

 

hmm...that has me confused altogether...

 

John!!! I'm ordering tonight or tomorrow

 

ok cool,i will keep an eye out for it

 

Once opened up fully they are definitely ugly brown with the very slightest hinting of dark green.

I like them though!

 

lol...thanks! (I think... )
