Way too many of these guys in my tank.

It was either sell them (for cost of packaging) or use them as fertilizer in my mom's garden.

Picked out the snails that I felt would survive a trip though the post office. All have nice solid shells, grown in the nice hard water of sunny Southern California.

Largest are probably about 1" long and smallest are just under 0.5" long.

I'm guessing there's about 40 of them in there so 4 packages of 10+ snails. Sizes will vary in each package but I'll try evenly distribute the sizes.

$2 per package (to cover shipping mat'ls) + shipping (let me know your zip code). I'll throw in some plant cuttings (willow leaf hygros, green hygros, and/or java moss) if you want any, just specify which you want.

PayPal Non-CC please.
 
Thanx

Thanks! Two packages claimed and paid for.

If I can get them sent out tomorrow, they should be there by the end of the week.

Also if you have any clippings to spare send them on ill take em.

PS all people reading this post. MTS (Malaysian Trumpet Snails) are definantly a plus in a sand FW aquarium. If you do not somehow stir up the sand on a regular basis (Either manually with your hands or with some sort of critter) then pockets of gas that are poisonous to fish can build up over time and when one of them seeps the gas into your water column you may come home to fish soup. MTS are substrate diggers infact one of the best around. If you have sand you may want to get some of these critters!!!! If you have gravel dont worry about the gas it has room to escape between the gravel.
