video: feeding my predatory snails

Are you sure you don't have a common nassarius snail?

 

Sweet video! I wasn't expecting it to be that awesome in the beginning. Something about snails normally don't appeal to me. I wasn't expecting a second one to come out of the sand that really surprised me. You should invest in a tripod though.

There are over 500 species of cone snails and most don't pack any more power than a bee sting. Every LFS I have seen carries livestock at least that deadly (rabbitfish, lion fish, etc)

 

great video.

 

I think they said they accidently ordered the wrong snails or something. When I went back to get the rest of them they were all gone lol

 

lol oh no, I do have a tripod is it really that bad hahah. I want a nikon camera and a macro lense. which kind I want I have no clue I'm not good with cameras but I know nikon are good lol. I do like poisonous stuff, I have a one spot foxface, and have been looking into other kinds of rabbitfish, I like them all I think they're awesome lol. I really like the orange spot and the scribbled rabbitfish. I also love puffer fish and box fish. Blue Ring Octopus look wild but even if I came across one of those I don't think I could bring myself to buy it. Too much risk of it getting out and me or my cats getting hurt. Outside my apartment there are black widows everywhere, it used to make me feel uneasy but now I'm more fascinated by them lol.

 

No it isn't that bad I was just giving you a hard time haha.

I just took my orange-spot (i still think it was a gold-spot) rabbitfish back to the LFS. He was a sweet fish but he was eating all my corals. Probably because I couldn't keep up with his eating habits. That fish thought it was a cow I swear. It would polish off an algae clip in about an hour and still be looking for more food, and he found corals.

Pufferfish are awesome. When I go fishing I catch pufferfish all the time, I want set up a tank and bring one home one day.

Black widows don't scare me that much... when a brown recluse runs at me though that gets me a little on edge. Especially seeing the scars on my girlfriends hip from a brown recluse bite.

 

I dont normally put predatory and snails together but that was awesome

 

lies!!

that is not a snail lol

 

I think I would rather get bit by a black widow and rush to hospital than get bit by a brown recluse and have to go through that. I've seen pictures and oh man it can get gross. I dont think I could deal with that. I love the orange spot. I've heard you can catch pufferfish around the gulf shore and I would love to do that next time I go down to mississippi or something

 

lol! but thats what the label said when I got it it's gotta be a snail! haha
