I've gotten from many places...

- Most of my snails and smaller crabs have come from Red Coral
- Porcelain crabs from Big Als (they always seem to have hundreds)
- Narcissus snails always seem to be in stock at Marine Aquaria, but some of mine came from Big Als
- Larger fancy blue legs I've gotten from Aquarium Central
- Also a few true Mexican Turbo's from Central


Since you are just finishing cycling (and haven't said exactly how you are cycling), you might not want to rush into toooo many at a time. If, however, you are doing ZEOvit with the 14-day cycle, and you are nearing the last few days (or are into the subsequent week+), go nuts, I did... If you are doing a traditional tank, definitely ease into the CUC no different than you would fish, as they add to your bioload.

Also good to have on hand is extra shells for any hermits to go in and out of (so they don't kill & steal the shells of your snails as often)


Cheers,
Craig
