Nice video val. I love your apple snail and Casey is a pretty nice looking guy also. Nat

They are both so cute!
I've wanted an apple snail for awhile now, but they aren't sold in Iowa... too many people letting them go in local waterways... I need to find out if Minnesota or Illinois sell them and get one next time I leave the state (or make a special trip to get one of those cute little guys!)

I bought Oto in Minnesota ( Duluth)....ya I wasn't even sure about bringing them into |Canada, but after all the retail therapy - I forgot to mention him....LOL

So they're legal in MN? I may have to stop on the way home from my parents cabin next month and get one. I'll have to see if anyone knows of a good fish store in Bemidji. Although that might be kind of a long trip (11 hours). Maybe I can find one off of i35 in the twin cities, that'd only be like 5 1/2 hours. Hm...

My favorite fish store is in Bemidji - that is where I won my 55g. It is called Pet Zone- but know what...Oto came from Walmart. I was killing time waiting for my friends and found myself back at the fish. They had just received a whole shipment of these snails. I bet any pet shop or Walmart would have the same. Good Luck!! Let me know if you find one!

I'll have to check out Pet Zone next time I go up there!
We usually ride up with my mom (saves $$ on gas) so it my be tricky getting her to detour to a fish store... but we always go to the walmart to get groceries when we're up there. = ) So I'll have to get one. Are they pretty easy to take care of?

The store is in the Simonson Centre, east of Target and on the opposite side of the road from Walmart. All I do is put a slice of cuke or zuchinni in every 2-3 days; or lettuce, etc. He does the rest!!
