I once put one in my risotto fruti Di Mare. It's delicious !

[@kevingruenofficial]

These videos deserve more views!

[@user-tt5cg9yp8l]

Agree.

[@manojmeena5771]

there is a pond near my house and in that pond there are tons of these rabbit snails

[@erstwhilegrubstake]

What a peculiar looking creature! Of course if it saw me it might say the same thing.

[@deathsalomon795]

My first rabbit snails arrive later today. I am so excited ❤

[@AnoraJohnson]

How are your rabbit snails adjusting? 🐌

[@deathsalomon795]

@AnoraJohnson first parcel arrived damaged and the snails did not survive💔 😢 got e replacement but most of them also died. Haven't seen any of them in some time 😞 good water, hood temperature but they don't thrive 😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨

[@AnoraJohnson]

@@deathsalomon795 I'm so sorry! How disappointing, and after you did so much to make a habitat. Have you seen ramshorn snails? Sometimes they are free from a fish store. They're pretty and tend to be healthy. Indestructible, really. They have a lot of tiny babies.

[@juli8vdberg562]

I got me one beautiful and big one today; it immediately started eating much food for my shrimps and I mean anything on its path and then stopped and moved on at evening. Should I worry?

[@indyreno2933]

Can you do fact files on the asiatic black bear?

[@theguy9878]

Love your videos I’ve been watching for 2 years

[@AnimalFactFiles]

Thanks so much! We're so glad you enjoy the content 😻

[@chisaquaticvibe6524]

They must be titans.

[@donchonealyotheoneal5456]

They're either rabbifants or their elebbites they're not a rabbit snail or an elephant snail but they are downright gorgeous I love those beautiful snails and what's amazing is they do their thing without us even knowing it you know they just do their thing and that's what life's all about that life live leave everything alone so it can

[@maskedbandit_champion]

nice

[@SunSheepOfLight]

I learned something new 👍

[@dj_shelldon3598]

Pretty eyes

[@KornflakezRandomStuff]

German KZbinrs often stating that rabbit snails can get up to 4-5 years.

[@eunaekim9216]

🐰🐌

[@friendfriend1005]

What about a semi slug?

[@tinadoyle3803]

I'm still unsure what too feed my snail although it has been suggested that they love Romaine lettice because there's calcium in it? My snail won't entertain pellets of plants I have almost leafs in my tank and occasionally see him nibbly on them but I'm worried they will eat the eggs if my Rams spawn. And advice ? It's it possible?

[@dj_shelldon3598]

Nice friends

[@Hyperion-5744]

It kind of reminds me of this giant snail that also resembles a rabbit.

[@tinadoyle3803]

Would a rabbit snail eat Rams Eggs in a Rams breeding tank ?
