I like him, not quite sure what kind of snail tho cause I got him as a replacement from a pet store i originally bought a nerite snail from. The guy who fished him I don’t think knew what a nerite snail looked like. Someone wanna identify him for me?

Here Ye go, I’ve named he/she my lil sea cow :}

Is it a ramshorn? Definitely not a nerite.

I don’t think so, he has a trapdoor kind of thing going for him and I have rams horns in my other tank, also he has a broader shell

Also, Amano shrimp with eggs :)

That is an assasin+ramshorn crossbreed. The local term is whirpool snails. I have a few in my snail farm.
 
He looks like a cross breed, between a Mystery snail, and a apple snail. :) He is really cool looking! :)
 
Well, I guess we better not get in the snail business. Lol!

No, I think that's cleared up nicely.
Sold as a nerite but is actually a mystery/apple/ramshorn/assassin.
Simple! :rofl:

A mystery snail is an apple snail. Americans use the name mystery snail while Europeans (and Australians?) call them apple snails.
