    My nerite snails seem to be reproducing like bunnies but i haven't noticed any little babies hanging out on other snails shells. They just seem to appear on the rocks where there is low flow and hang out there until they can handle the flow of the tank then off they go. Snails lay like egg sacks they are little white spots on your glass and rocks. Not sure if this helps but I hope it did /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default//emoticons/smile.gif
