Sulphite Posted December 19, 2012 Report Share Posted December 19, 2012 Hey guys, I'm curious as to where I can find the aforementioned colours of Mystery Snails. I've seen numerous pictures of them and I think they look amazing. Anyone know of any sellers around these parts? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aquaaddict Posted December 19, 2012 Report Share Posted December 19, 2012 there have been reported sightings of some of these around abouts, alternatively and with some creative talent, there is also DIY lol:lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sulphite Posted December 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2012 lol Aqua And really? Food dye makes them change to such vibrant colours? I just assumed they were a different breed of snail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luckyfish Posted December 20, 2012 Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 I breed blacks, basically to get a purple colour you interbred the normal yellow and the blacks and they breed different morphs, black with yellow stripes, yellow with black stripes, sometimes purple.....i have a nice selection growing up atm, to get purple you have to select breed for quite a while Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sulphite Posted December 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 Ah right! I thought it couldn't have just been food dye. Do you have any idea where I could find any around Brisbane? Possibly even sell me some of your blacks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mthom211 Posted December 20, 2012 Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 I know someone breeding the purples, they throw pink, blue, white and brown, but mostly purple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sulphite Posted December 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 Well, knowing that there are some people out there with the different colours, I'll go over to the trading section and make a post to buy some. Thanks for your help guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
