Breeding nassarius!!

[MarkaRagnos]

Can anyone point me in a better direction for breeding nassarius snails?? I have one or two that Kay eggs once a week. Please point me in the direction of the best of the best!!!!

Well, the little guys do tend to stay hidden most of the time (even at night).

Maybe check ORA or AlgaeBarn? But then again they sell them, so may not be inclined to share their aquaculturing techniques, LOL. Very cool that yours are breeding though!

Roger mine are out bright and early when there’s light but not really. This happens almost once a week. I want the best most in-depth guid I can be given!!! I even may have caught them at a good time hopefully this is also them. Was a small sample taken a few days after and they are moving around in there

That's cool!
I only have 2 nassarius (for 1 year) and haven't seen a single egg.

I have like 7 or so in 75 for 1 year. No skimmer. Wc is about 15% biweekly. My sandbed is about 4-6inches deep

Hahaa yea probably could get the answer by doing it how they say and the exact opposite as well. Probably be successful one way or the other

I wonder if both of mine are males ... hmm

You didn’t check underneath??? Haha jj but yea that’s a possibility what if they only breed seasonally,
