Hi all, long time no see, life got in the way and I wasn't really focused on my tanks . I have now moved to a new house and I had to dismantle my riverscape and set it up again from the beginning. Hopefully I will be able to present it soon enough.

So I asked a local fish store to order some horned nerites for me. I got three but after two days lost two of them. Went back and the stock had died as well. I got the last remaining horned nerite and another snail without horns. The horned one has died again but this is alive and well so today I went and got another five of the plain snails.

I cannot identify their species. I want to believe that I might have got some Theodoxus fluviatilis. What do you think?

Thanks! I had never seen Nerites like these so I wasn't sure and really hoped I had scored some Theodoxus sp!
