Will my Blue Mystery snail breed with my Gold Inca?

I've had a Gold Inca snail for about 3 months, and he has doubled in size. He is almost the size of a golf ball. He has been alone in my 8 gal. Biorb tank. Water parameters seem good for him, Temp. is 78, GH around 120 ppm, PH at 7.5, 0 Nitrite, 0-20 Nitrate. I add cuttlebone and powdered egg shell to his water. He eats well on a rotating basis a diet of Algae wafers, frozen Brine Shrimp, Fish Flakes, dehydrated blood worms and Hikari Crab Cuisine. He doesn't care for blanched veggies. I wanted to get another snail for Gary (lol) so I just got a Blue Mystery snail. It is less than half the size of Gary. I don't know if the new snail is male or female, but I would love to have a clutch of baby snails. With my current environment and water parameters, is it possible for them to mate and lay a clutch of snail eggs? I am new to snails so any advice is appreciated. I am now addicted to these amazing, cool pets!

 

Only one way to find out lol

Thanks for that! I was hoping someone on the forum may have experience with the mating habits of snails of different species/sizes... I've read that "Mystery Snail" is a broad term for many snails that go by various names.

The ability to breed together is there, assuming they are both appropriate genders.

The size of a golf ball! My Nerite snail is like half an inch in diameter!

Nerites and Mystery snails....Though one of my Nerites is pretty big as well, but no comparison

Yeah, I wanted a Gold Inca BECAUSE they are one of the larger snails. Garry was the size of a nickel when I got him. I love it that has grown to this size!
