Here are my new darlings! They are soooooooo adorable!
They survived a cross country trip and a long slow acclimation period (I had them in my office during the rest of the day until I could take them home).
These were taken before they were released in my tank. That night I watched them eat like little pigs but was happy they were coming out for food!
Thanks october004 for these babies!

Thanks McEve!
Not sure if some might be snubnosed or not, but I wouldn't care either way
They are all wonderful and adorable.
Mainly, I'm watching them to see how the two adults and the older babies will accept them. So far they're on separate sides of the tank but it's only their second day in the tank. We'll see how things work out
This means more water changes for me to do too, want to make sure nitrates won't go up too harshly with more babies in the tank. I did a good cleaning of all the ramhorns in my tank, almost filled 1/4 cup of ramhorn snails.
*dancing* I love watching them grow up

You're looking at their actual size in the photothebuddy wrote:there beautiful how big are they?
The biggest one (#10) is about 1.5"
I was a bit surprised at how big they were. We had agreed that I was going to receive babies ranging from 3/4" to 1". I've receieved smaller babies from another breeder before so I was trusting that these would make the trip.
I'll see if I can catch them feeding tonight and capture a few pics. There's one baby that I have from my first purchase that has a cute top stripe shaped like a shark fin heehee, I named him Sharky!
