They uploaded fine Ray, however the upload is only half of it. You also have to copy and paste the code in the post body that appears after the upload. Also your pictures are almost 4MB. That is pretty large, may want to consider compressing them before upload.


These are limpets (specifically elephant snails) some are bad but these below are great for the tank. You are lucky to have them.  :th_ShowLetter:

   Thank you so much MR. Elder Administrator, Lazylivin. Your the MAN.

Not sure I no what you mean about where to copy/paste. Will get with you and mabe you can show me????
I chose the thumbnail in pho-buket to make it small as I have b-4.


I am really Proud that you helped even without being ask. I was afraid that some would think that; 'Well if he cant remember how to use photobucket > too bad.

I have trouble w/my memory but not with Karma. And you wont be troubled by karma either Brian. At least not on my part.
 
Once again, Thanks, Ray    :-ThumbUpsm

PS. by the way LazyLivin. This came from your tank as a hichhiker . I remember talking to you about it. You said that they will multiply with out a mate. and that you ahd several of them. Thats been back when I got the leathers. sure glad you didnt want it back. I love it. The pic dont do it justice.

Are they all the same color? Do you know the life span? And how do they reproduce?

This one is about 4 inches long and 3 inches wide. Mostly nocturnal; Dont know what it eats; deep purple to black.
I wish I could get another one.

There are usually a few black limpets at gerbers, they are usually kept in with the turbo snails or in the cubes above. they are black limpets witha  white streak of its shell usually exposed...

I was wrong Ray, just looked them up. They need Male/Female to mate.

Hyperlinks don't really show all that different from regular text so it is hard to tell there was anything there.
