I have recently come into possession of quite a lot of gAls hatchlings, and was wondering if these could be fed to my fire-bellied newts. They are currently feeding on bloodworm and brine shrimp (both frozen) but I don't know if snails would be suitable live food. Thanks for the help! :)

Hi, I have acquired 7 rather large GALS, the previous owner told us that when she rehomed them they were in a bit of a state, basically their shells were falling apart, splitting, flaking and some having holes in them. She seems to have done a good job in turning them around, but told us there...

Hi, guys. So I've determined that I have something of a fungus gnat infestation in my GALS tank. I've read that they're not too much a problem in terms of the snails' health, but they're doing my head in and I'd like them gone, basically. Does anybody know of an effective way to deal with...
