Eplesnegler og Reker.......

Har to spm. Håper noen har gode svar til meg.....

1. Hvor gamle kan eplesnegle bli?

2. Hvor gamle kan kirsebærreker bli?
Mener jeg leste her inne at kirsebærrekene ble rundt ett år.

Aner ikke ang sneglene
Takk for svar..... For andre som også lurer, fant jeg dette svaret-

How old do apple snails get?
The apple snail's life expectancy mainly depends on the temperature of their environment and the general life conditions. At lower temperatures, the apple snail can get over 3 years old and records of apple snails of ten years old have been reported. Lanistes nyassanus has an estimated life span of 5 to 10 years in Lake Malawi, Africa.
At a temperature of 25°C, they will only live 12-16 months. At higher temperatures, the snails are more active because their metabolism increases with the temperature, but this also speeds up their life cycle and thus shortens their life expectancy.
So you can elongate your snail's life by lowering the temperature. A general rule: keep the temperature between 18 and 28°C (65-82°F).
It is suspected that at least some apple snail species need an aestivation period in the mud to avoid burning-out.
