I'd say good decision going with fish. I had a giant African land snail as a pet as a kid... Well cause I was an odd child.

But what a lot of people don't know is that they're hermaphroditic so when my snail got jiggy with itself there were like 200 little baby snails born .

My mum said I had to get rid so I went to release them in my local park, and a coupe of asshole kids from my area got a hold of my tesco bag full of baby snails and smashed them to a slimy mess in front of me. I gave one of them a black eye but the other two kicked the shit out of me.

Fun times growing up in toxteth Liverpool in the 80's. I still can't watch a Frenchie eat snails without wanting to punch him in the chops 😆
