High Calcium Snello (Mystery Snail Food)

Thanks for checking out my recipe for 3 different types of High Calcium Snello! I really packed as much calcium as I could put into these recipes without going full on calcium block!
Hope you all enjoyed it! Please do try it out and let me know how it turns out for you!
Remember: when in doubt, more gelatin!

Lav! Thanks for doing this channel. I would equate your channel to being like the Bob Ross of snail keeping. I hope you take that as a compliment 😉

[@LavsSnails]

💜🤗 that's one of the kindness compliments ever! Thank you so much!

Can you do a video on smaller batches of snello for those of us that only have 1 snail or a few? I am sure I could cut all the ingredients, but I would love to see you do a small batch.

[@LavsSnails]

Sure will! I will put that on my list! Thank you for the suggestion! 🐌💜 and for watching!

[@kendrapratt6415]

Yay! We have three and I hate to throw away so much !!

[@monkeyscraftingcorner3962]

@@kendrapratt6415 you can actually freeze snello. It will be good for a while

[@lrso5152]

Just reserve some of your canned veggies when cooking, and save the can water. Maybe 1/3 to 1/4 and just eyeball it from there

[@kellycasperhanson4426]

🐌The gelatin needs to be dissolved in COLD water first!!! Then it will not form "blobs." Thanks for the great recipes🐌.

[@zachowzach]

First batch turned out perfect! The little beans are already munching their first block down ☺️

[@collincowart5960]

I am a new fish keeper and have really gotten fond of mystery snails. I found two egg clutches in the last week and have decided to hatch them in their own tank and get a happy little snail colony going. Your videos have helped tons, Im making my first batch of snello today thanks to you!

[@DesertDog1]

Thank you Lav, this is one of the more educational, interesting, and enjoyable videos I have watched! Keep up the great work, Ben!

I think I'll use my duckweed, algae, and other aquarium plants to make my snello.. I toss the stuff into my compost pile on a regular basis.. Ground up egg shells in my mortar for the calcium carbonate.

Gotta make a batch for my snails, and I suspect it'll be excellent for my shrimp too.

How many snails are you feeding? Is this also good for shrimp?

[@TripleJAquatics]

you go through that much in under 30 days!! #goals lol

[@dianecreedon3841]

Have you ever bought food grade calcium carbonate? When I buy the large bag from specialty aquarium sellers I spend a lot of money. Was wondering if there is a difference that you know of Walmart has it way cheaper…

[@cynthiaadams1263]

How do you keep it fresh? My snello goes bad within a week or so. I tried freezing it, but my snails don't seem to like it as much. Any suggestions? thanks

[@SetterAquariums]

What's super easy is just pop a costco tums in the tank. They eat it all and it works wonders.

[@emihayashi7725]

Tums? The medicine is good for snails?

[@a-can-o-beans8340]

I think I'm going to make snello based off of one of these recipes but I'm struggling to figure out how often I should feed the snails snello. I have 6 mystery snails that look okay but one in particular shell isn't looking great. I have 2 other fish that always seem to gobble up the food before the snails have a chance to get anything of substance. Considering I'm only feeding 6 snails how much snello would you recommend I feed them ? How often? I want to do right by these guys so I appreciate any feedback 😊

[@sheilataylor9579]

Can the snello go into a tank with a Beta? Is it safe for Betas, if they eat it?

[@unsocialbutterfly5760]

Does boiling the fresh water remove chlorine?

[@RussClark-ok7ld]

Big fan of your KZbin channel Lav. I have learned a great deal about mystery snails from watching your videos and ready to get my first mystery snails. I am interested in purchasing some of your snails. Can you provide info for where I can place an order. Thanks in advance.

Is fruit safe for Mystery Snails?

Should we treat the water?
