A lump on the side of a giant African land snail's head could indicate several issues, such as a cyst, an injury, or an infection. It's important to observe any other symptoms, like changes in behavior or appetite. If the lump persists or worsens, it's advisable to consult a veterinarian experienced with snails to ensure proper care. Regular monitoring and maintaining appropriate habitat conditions can help prevent health issues.
The zoological name for snails belongs to the class Gastropoda. Within this class, there are numerous families, genera, and species of snails, each with its own unique scientific name. For example, the common garden snail is known as Cornu aspersum, while the giant African land snail is called Achatina fulica. Taxonomically, snails are a diverse group of mollusks characterized by their coiled shells and muscular foot used for locomotion.
Giant African land snail eggs are small, round, and translucent. They are usually laid in clusters and have a soft, jelly-like texture. The eggs can vary in color from white to pinkish, depending on the species of snail.
Aquarium snails are different from regular land snails. All aquatic snails have gills. Just like their land relatives, these snails also have radula(rasping tongue),tentacles, and hard shells. Aquatic snails do not have as developed eyes as land snails. Many aquatic snails have a door or an opcerium at the entrance of their shell. Some aquatic snails also grow to the size of a baseball.
Aquatic snails (as opposed to land snails) and fish live entirely in water - either fresh or salt, depending on their nature.
