You see smoke before you see fire... check your snails, again... they might be about to spontaneously combust...

Post pictures in the correct forum and we can probably help you...

Once every 2 weeks or so one or 2-3 i have 7 all together start smoking. There is a continues white substance looking like smoke comming out of the side of the snails. And that goes on for 2-3 h. The water does not cloud and no book or the guy at the fish store knows. Even he thinks i am crazy. I had my snails for 8 months now but it started 2 months ago and it does not look like they are having sex.lol
