Wow- you too- you are of my heart. The other thing that I keep a lot of are aquariums. 4 to be eaxct. And I have one tank to myself (my fiance goes crazy with the others) my tank has only snails in it- and they spawn like crazy. I can spend an hour watching them, just thinking that all of these tiny snails are getting their start with the green alage I let grow in there. It's amazing, like you said, to watch them grow from these tiny little things you can barely see to an adult snail.
It's the small things and I love that you and I have that in common! I thought I was just weird with my snails and plants :)
> That's great. A couple of days ago I was watching my turtle terrarium (turtle, trapdoor snails, tetras). Over the last few weeks, the snails have been hatching eggs. Watching these things go from less than 1/4" big to being almost an inch in some cases is quite amazing. It's also neat to think that I facilitated this little genesis of life.
