yup they poop

It should look like small tube-like chunks...

I've heard aquatic snails breed like crazy. Some can even breed by themselves....:shock:

I have one of those tiny pest snails- my husband wanted to keep him as a pet when I got rid of all of them from my fish tank (named him Frank :) ) his poo is tiny little curly things and he produces ALOT of it...we clean out the little tank for him every other day, but i saw your snail its much bigger......so in short i have no idea, just wanted to share i guess :)
