| I have only seen this from one snail, it leaves a white secretion (spelling?) on the glass. What is this and should I make sure to keep it cleaned off???? |

Its probably eggs. If the fish don't eat it you can scrape it off. Or see if your lucky and get baby snails. ------------- http://www.customaquariumfurniture.com" rel="nofollow - Bad "censored" Cabinets Best quality in the valley! He is one sexy bald guy, even with out a finger!(MAC) |
