OblongShrimp Posted September 29, 2014 Report Share Posted September 29, 2014 those look like blue to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OMG Aquatics Posted September 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2014 I'll try to get a better picture later. These were sold to me as pink. The snail is pink but the shell is white/brownish. So are these pink ramshorn or pink/brown ramshorn? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OblongShrimp Posted September 29, 2014 Report Share Posted September 29, 2014 I was thinking some of the smaller ones looked a little pink but figured it was the camera flash or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OMG Aquatics Posted September 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2014 No camera flash used. Placed it on the side of a lighting strip. Why would ramshorn grow white frosting on their shell? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soothing Shrimp Posted September 29, 2014 Report Share Posted September 29, 2014 The smaller ones look like pinks while the larger ones look like blues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OMG Aquatics Posted September 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2014 Just curious. Do ramshorn lose color during shipping? I'll take another picture tomorrow and see if there's any difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soothing Shrimp Posted September 30, 2014 Report Share Posted September 30, 2014 they are blue shells it looks like. pink have clear shells. they are red foot aka red rams and some are dark footed Yepper. I used to breed ramshorns for fun. yellow shell/red foot = red ramshorn yellow shell/brown foot = brown ramshorn clear/red foot/pink foot= Pink Ramshorn clear shell/brown foot= "blue" ramshorn. All these can have leopard spots as well. Clear shells turn whitish with build up of calcium as they get older. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
