Baby snails...

First rule of Snail Club:  Keep the freaking babies in a separate tank.  There's dozens of little ones cruising around the main 29-gal tank and we can't touch it without killing 6 of them.  :(  They're tiny and get smushed at any provocation.  Best to just leave them alone.

Plus, if you keep them in different tanks, you get to control the genetics!  This leads to keeping a lot of different tanks, but you get to control your breeding process.

Next clutch they're going in a zip-lock bag with a wet paper towel until they hatch, then into a small tank.
