A mix of Bladder, Pond, Mini Rams, and Ramshorn Snails for your feeding needs.
A great mix of sizes and types to start your own feeder colony for carnivorous, snail-eating fish such as Puffers and Loaches.
Although these are easygoing, fast breeding types, I'd recommend keeping these in a separate tank, and harvesting a few at a time. Carnivorous fish can be voracious eaters, so you wouldn't want them to wipe out your snail colony before it gets a chance to establish!
Alternatively, perhaps you'd like a bulk snail amount to get a new Walstad tank started?
These little guys play such an important role in a balanced aquarium! They are nature's recyclers, and work tirelessly to scrub detritus, algae and fish poo from your tank.
Peaceful and easy- going, these snails do not eat live plants, but you may see them resting on green foliage in order to scrub away any algae or biofilms on the surface.
These guys are undemanding, but would prefer a planted, community tank within normal parameters. They do like a bit of cuttlebone here and there to keep their shells hard and clear, and most species will grow to about 1". Grab some of that here: Cuttlebone by Weight.
