I've been fascinated with all types of snails for as long as I can remember... the kind of little kid that went out collecting them in the garden and then horrified their parents with a shoe box full of soil and snails. I've also been begging for a GALS for at least five years, researching snails too.... xD Anyway, I just started sixth form, and after hearing someone tell me they had three baby GALS, I immediately went, "I ALWAYS WANTED ONE OF THEM!!!" and she said, "Well, if your parents don't mind, I'm not paticularly attached to one of them..." I don't think they will go for it, that would be too perfect, buuut... 1) I have one of these: Will this be big enough for a GALS? 2) If I only have one, will it get lonely? No eggs= happier parents 3) Do I need 'snail mix'? None of my local pet shops sell exotic food. Can I make my own? Thanks, I can't find anything on this!

that tank is nice but how big is it? if you have one snail i dont think it wont get lonely and there is no eggs. But it is no biggy if they do have eggs i would opt for 2 or three it is more interesting then.
You dont need snail mix but it is simple to make your own. Jusy mix plain porrige oats with hot water and you can add cereal or cuttle fish shavings and then just let it cool and wala there you have your on snail mix i hope this helps.

It would be more than big enough I would say, but you can't really limit the space, the bigger the better, if yours is the same size as in the picture then I wouldn't see why that wouldn't be enough room, I wouldn't say mine gets lonely, I only have one you see, if they do breed though and you are not wanting the eggs, then you would have to dispose of them say by freezing themor whatever..! But Good luck, hope your parents say your allowed one Evaa xx
