I Have Snails!

[RossC]

They're a couple of millimeters and have brown shells that go slightly transparent towards the top. They're fast movers too (for snails anyway)

Ah, not like the lake snails I've had (long and brown cone-shaped shells and they grow pretty big). I have no idea if lake snails are bad for the aquarium, but I've kept them in a bottle and they even had eggs. Unfortunately, mom didn't let me keep them in the house and they froze to death on the balcony.

Poor snails

When I fished them out of the lake, I thought they could live in the house. I didn't know how they'd end up, I was a kid so how was I supposed to know my mom would hate them? Back then I would bring home fish, snails... anything I could find in the lake and once wanted to bring home tadpoles. LOL.

Lol I bought home a jar full of mosquito lava once, my mom pretty much reacted the same.

Well, only mosquito larva pet I've had was found in my turtle's pond. I managed to raise it in a jar full of water. It was interesting to see it metamorphose into a weird fish-shaped cocoon with a big belly and then into a mosquito. Then I let him/her go out of the house. That in spite of all the mosquito pinches I've suffered during that summer from a whole lot of them. X))

I've also fished some cool looking fish that shone like rainbow when in the sunlight. They grew up to 2 inches but died later on. Had Crucian carps multiple times too, but they were adopted from people who gave them to me or from one time when my dad brought a bunch of dead fish for food and I found one that was moving.
