I would also like to state that I was looking over this thread again and realized I came off as very aggressive and have no problem with you whatsoever and whatever came off as rude I sincerely apologize. Like genuinely apologize. I don’t want drama and I’ve personally gotten advice from you and know you’re extremely knowledgeable. It’s just a debate and we have differing opinions. I personally have more knowledge when it comes to land snails and would always advise terrestrial snails in cases like these but I also don’t think you’re fully correct. Both of you have a great day. I need to sleep 👍

Okay so I’m gonna make a comment cause I want to drive this conversation back on topic. The jar you own is way more than sufficient when it comes to size. Go in the aquatic snails subreddit and look up “jars.” It’s a pretty common way to keep tiny “pest” (ik I hate calling them pests too) snails such as bladders and ramshorns. Jars do tend to have higher maintenance due to how small they are compared to a conventional tank but since it’s 4 gallons that’s not as much as a problem for you. Are you able to fit your hand in there to do maintenance cause that would make it even easier. I would check out some of those threads in the aquatic subreddit and do some research :)

The title of this post literally asks about both aquatic and land snails? 🤨

The size is adequate for certain species of both. The two main problems with it is the lid and how they would maintain it. The lid problem is already solved and the plumbing is more than doable if instead of filters (due to limited maneuverability) OP just makes constant small water changes instead and monitors the parameters. I’ve seen people make and succeed at making aquariums that are of way smaller form factors for bladder and ramshorns to varied success.

I don’t think they removed it. This person is actually very intelligent and would almost always encourage learning when it comes to aquatic snail care. Way more knowledgeable than us. They are simply a mod that can see removed posts.

🐌 🫶 I apologize but I gotta call it a night. Feel free to dm me if you ever have any questions. Keep in mind I am a lot more knowledgeable when it comes to land snails than aquatic snails tho

You are straight up lying!! That is not what people said. One person didn’t like it. And now you’re saying “I told you to go look at another sub for sustaining ecospheres.” That is literally what OP is currently doing. OP took the advice of the top comment from the old post which was “that lid is bad” because of oxygenation issues. Then OP decided they’re going to make a mesh lid for it and posted it here. You are quite literally trying to gaslight OP. I mean this respectfully cause I know who you are and I respect your opinion heavily but you’re not being truthful here.

Literally all of them except for one said to go for it. And 3-4 gallons can literally be enough for a smaller land snail like a grove snail or garlic snails if it has a mesh lid like op described. And the craziest part is the one person that said this wouldn’t be suitable specifically said “with that lid” TWICE. So OP took that into consideration and is making a mesh lid. The receipts are all there. Kinda worrying that you’re a mod and spreading misinformation like this.
