Does anyone with Mystery Snails know what is going on?? I had two Ivory Mystery Snails in a 5G and two weeks ago they appeared to be mating! I will call the small snail a female and the large snail a male. So, one week ago I noticed that the female had become lethargic and was not eating. (she would not even drop back into the water when I was doing water changes.) I thought she was dead or dying twice and almost made the mistake of removing her from the tank. Yesterday, I transferred her tank mates (male snail, 2 African dwarf frogs) into a cycled 10G, left her in the 5G and dropped the water level 1" below the rim. This morning there is tissue residue and floating bubbles near the surface and she is laying dead like underneath the area. Is this a failed attempt to create an egg cone, or is she actually ill and perhaps dying??? Any help with this would be appreciated. :cry:

Thought I'd throw this in here .In the last year in Calgary there's been an infestation of fruit flies thru grocery stores when brought home . We've been trying too get rid of them but. The wife bought a Uv bug catcher( Costco) that works well they just are attracted to the light and get sucked up in a vacum with wire mesh and plastic valve there usually dead and dried in a week .Once in a while some are alive , I just pull out the screen trap and dip and shake in the fish tank they eatem right away.
