Baby snails

[Chela101]

So my tank been good except a small period when I went to vacay… and today while doing my weekly clean we found these in the sock! The smallest one is smaller than the pointy side of my needle I showed as comparison could I possibly put these in a different tank and reproduce within themselves? And how young can they start reproducing

Trochus, I believe. Trochus can look similar to Collinista when small.

I was confused too as which one were these… how young can they reproduce?

A long long time.

Looks like Trochus. I started with 4 “adults” and have seen 2-3 generations born in a year. Usually I will see cloudy water at daybreak, and a few weeks later these little guys will be everywhere. I’d say 4 months or so. Hard to say if the younger ones are spawning in that duration, as the old timers are still around.
