What size are they, can u put a rupee coin next to one for scale?

They look suspiciously like MTS to me. They are invasive, and occur in all tropical climes today. ... remember that.

They do have the MTS look but seem much more rounded. If a Malaysian Trumpet Snail can be voluptuous then this is it!!

How many of these have you got Vishaal? If ever you feel the urge to get rid of these then I am there...
News from The North Indian barbecue is...
Browning outside, softening inside.
