Since my hamster passed away two months ago, I've been interested in setting up my 2 gallon fish bowl with a low maintenance pet. I was looking into african dwarf frogs, but today I saw quite a few snails out, and I'm hooked on this idea of a pet snail.
I looked up what a good environment is for them and what substrate to use and food, and stuff. It seems very easy to keep a happy healthy garden snail, and they'll eat bad fruits and veggies!

I'll be looking around for cool rocks and/or wood pieces for the snail to hide in, and get some good soil and stuff for the bottom. Can't wait!!

lol, I've always thought you could set up some awesome photos with a snail too, not sure why but they are so neat looking and if you had a pet one you could set up whatever photos you wanted much easier!!! hehe

You should name your future pet snail Gary!

A SNAIL! Can you get a lesser maintainence pet than that? Wow! If it were me, I take it up one notch and get a newt....they have 4 legs and a tail. Glue a tiny piece of poodle fur on it for a tiny topknot and you'll have the latest fad in dogs...a hairless newtadoodle.
