Bid History:

� � PLEASE READ ENTIRE AUCTION & TERMS BEFORE BIDDING Shipping to contiguous 48 states only, (CONUS, not AK, HI, or PR). � One Light Foot Purple / Magenta Mystery Snail Clutch This large clutch was laid late this week, and will yield between 250 and 300 babies, maybe more. I would expect it to hatch around Halloween or shortly after (first week of Novemeber). Shown is the clutch you will receive, I don't like buying clutches sight unseen and I won't ask you to either. Second photo is the mother snail laying a previous clutch. You will also be receiving very detailed printable instructions on how to hatch the clutch, nuture the new babies and care for the growing snails right into adulthood. I will also include a hatch kit with everything needed except a tupperware container. � � � � I only keep a few pink/magenta snails and don't have these purple clutches very often so bid now if you're interested. Check the prices these pink/magenta snails are going for, even if you only get a buck a piece you will come out way ahead. I often have other color clutches available, check my other auctions. This must be shipped no later than Monday October 24th so it can reach you before hatching. If it is not paid for by 8pm EDT on Sunday October 23th, it will be destroyed. Do not bid unless you have an active PayPal account in good working order and can make an instant payment. The email address you receive from AquaBid is also my PayPal account, there is no need to wait for me. No e-checks, no Money Orders. Ask any questions BEFORE bidding. Please have a responsible plan for housing the snails as they grow and an outlet for all the extras. You will end up with more than can be kept in a couple of small tanks! Or a dozen large tanks. If you only want a few snails, this is not for you. Mystery snails should have hard water and an alkaline pH, 7.5 to 8.0 is good. In soft acid water you will have irrepairable problems with the shells which can ultimately be fatal, at the least it's unattractive. I consider these snails to be plant-safe, they do not eat most live plants unless they are starving. They do need veggies in their diet. Collard or dandelion greens are good choices. Plain lettuce doesn't really have any nutritional value (except Romaine). They will eat some soft algaes and dead plant foliage. And of course they like to clean up fish food which has fallen to the bottom. Suitable tankmates include most gentle community fish. Most loaches and cichlids are poor choices. Even if the snail is not killed outright, constantly having their antennas or bodies nipped at will make their lives miserable. In a suitable environment, mystery snails are active. A wealth of information on keeping and hatching Mystery Snails can be found at AppleSnail.net. If you have never hatched a Mystery Snail clutch before, please do your research before bidding. � Term details are on my Just Me page. �Please read it before bidding. �A copy of these terms is also included in this auction as commented out text and can be viewed by looking at the page source. Payment is by PayPal only, no e-checks and MUST be completed by 8:00 pm EDT on 10/23. When paying with PayPal, you must include the address you wish the package sent to. Priority Mail in a well insulated box is included in the price. If your high temps are over 90F, do not bid. I am offering no guarantee these will hatch because the clutch will need additional incubation after you receive it. Some of my other auctions may be combined with this for savings on shipping costs. Thanks for looking and GOOD LUCK!
