Help, I've fallen and can't get up!!!!
I need more snails, what do you suggest?
I prefer not to buy any that can't right themselves when they fall onto their back. I have a ton of empty shells from snails that slipped off the glass and became hermit food. What kinds would you suggest for algaea grazing and detritus/uneaten food? Thanks! |

Trochus and Stomatella snails will be fine as far as falling, but hermit crabs will eat snails, period.

It doesn't help when they are laying helpless on their backs though.
I rarely see the hermits bothering my snails except when they are upside down and unable to move. Where's a good place to order from (cheap)? |

I have bought Trochus from ipsf.com, and both types from InlandAquatics.com, but IPSF only sells them in a combo pack. There are likely other vendors. Both species can reproduce in tanks, so I have all I need and then some.
