Since I have now gained a fair few fulica I am going to have to mix some species in tanks. Does anyone know if fulica and rectics would breed? I don't want them too!

Yeah retics have a very strong rasp, it's very noticeable - I wouldn't keep them with other snails to be honest - at least not as adults. Plus the different heat preferences they have to fulica too.
But they won't breed - the species differences are too significant.

Ooh I've never seen them rasping! I'll have to start a thread with all my species so you can all suggest who lives with who!

Honestly - I'd recommend keeping everything separate tbh. But thats just me. They rasp all the time, it's how they eat  just they have a very very strong.... equivalent-of-jaw xD |
