Snail order??
 

I need snails badly.. I lost a lot of mine to the recent tank "crash" as well.

Need a variety, and I don't know where I want to order from yet.. we can all figure that out if there's enough interest. Hopefully there is because my tank needs em badly!

I've been looking for a couple of emerald crabs, and haven't seen any locally, so if you do an order I'll add those in. FYI, J&L is offering free shipping on livestock orders over $300 (not sure how much longer). I just don't need enough myself to come close to that but possibly as a group order.

I need a true peppermint so i could jump on this as well!

Alrighty, well I only really need some snails and I wouldn't mind a true peppermint either. We'll see how many people we can get in on an order.

I was in that new salt water store last week (red coral aquariums). He had lots of snails in stock but I can't remember what kind (I know they weren't turbos). Anyway they were regular 4 bucks each but he said if you buy more than 10 he would sell them for 3 bucks each. My tank is small so for me that many is to much but you might want to check out what he has.

Thanks for the heads up.

3 bucks is still to much, if someone does an order form somewhere that has a decent amount of snails ill be in. ive talk to hidden reef and they are getting in a large invert shipment in a week and are suppose to have lots of snails.

golds had pepermints and emerals this week when i was thier.

None there right now. That kinda stuff is pretty vanilla and common though.

Maybe we can check out hidden reef once that invert order is in then :question:

do you find that snails actually do anything in your tank? when i first started i kept about 100 snails in a 90 gal and they where always on the glass, now i have a 200 gal and no snails. i dont see a difference.
seriously maybe i just got lazy snails but in my experience they dont clean anything. is my experience the oddity or the norm?

I need snails that are more prone to eating hair algae.. I think they are mexican turbo's and another kind.. I forget the names. These are the kind I'm after...

I do find snails help... film algae or patches I get on the glass is taken care of by my snails.. they definitely don't make a huge difference by any means. I just want some that will tackle bits of sprouting hair algae. I am sick of sea hares as they always find my intakes.

Scott, if u can wait a few days we can do a group order for snails? i need a bunch.
