Stomatella snail releasing cloudy substance?

[Dustin B]

I think these 2 guys are stomatella snails that I did not put in my tank, but anyway, check out the video of the snail releasing something. Just wondering what it is and is it harmful. I'm assuming it has something to do with mating?

That's how the snails in my tank spread their love around.

Your snails are happy and…..excited

probably spawning? doesn't seem very concerning.

Stay out of the water until your snails look tired and satisfied.

Ok, so after more than a month after I posted, now I have what seems like endless stomatella snail babies in my tank. Literally tiny white dots everywhere. So I know that are not bad but can they overwhelm a tank? I can't imagine having hundreds on grown snails in my 13.5 gallon tank.

may have a good way to making some income if you're able to keep them alive long enough to sell!

Usually not all of them make it, keep them for now if they make it and grow you could sell them.
