They look fantastic! I should really get some pics of my gymnocalycium. Today I gathered some pollen from my larger specimen to hopefully have a successful hand-pollination tomorrow when the first flower on my smaller specimen opens up

Definitely get photos of your gymnocalycium and post here, I just can't get enough of looking at cactus these days! I sit and stare at mine with pure delight all day.

I think I'm going to feel a bit sad when I finish my book. Happy it's finished, but like 'It's all done now' sad/relieved....

That makes sense. I can't imagine what a mix of emotions that must be

I'm still trying to get myself to start a book, like, just start. I have three ideas that I have almost completely planned out, but I haven't started a single one. Keep changing my mind

I never posted an update, but all three nerite snails arrived safe and well
As soon as they were acclimated they were off exploring and haven't stopped since. They're super beautiful. I think they're females, but its so hard to tell, I'll have to wait and see if they lay eggs.

I'm obsessed with this shell colour, the more I look the more beautiful it gets. The other two are zebras, and also very beautiful.

I have three that I started, but haven't worked on in years. I need to get back to at least one of them!

Aren't snails hermaphrodites?

Now you're talking like a full fledged succulent peep!

Not nerites. Apple snails are also not hermaphroditic

They're so pretty! I loved my two nerites (now down to one)!
