Ramshorn Snails Or Pond Snails

  • #1
I set up a 3 gallon tank with 2 small filters (one that came with tank) and a heater and it has a light and some gravel and will be adding a plant or 2, but this is where I will house my feeders for when I get my Pea Puffers. So, I am looking to buy some.

I prefer the ramshorn snails because I have been plucking pond snails out of my 40-gallon tank and I really do not like them, they kind of freak me out, but for food I would deal with them.

Depending on how quick they reproduce, and I do not have pea puffers yet, I was thinking 20ish?

No. I want ramshorn to feed pea puffers.

Amazon has everything
Amazon.com: ramshorn snails live freshwater

I feed mine daily with an assortment of live foods like blackworms and whiteworms ,brine shrimp, grindal worms and they are able to eat adult brine shrimp if it is offered. I also add ramshorn snails to their tank. They don’t seem too interested in adult snails, but they will eat tiny young ramshorns.

Yea, I know. Ebay has them too. I already have frozen blood worms. I thought I would see if any of our members here had them because I trust our members a little more than I do people on Amazon or Ebay.

I really wish they would eat flakes or pellets, LOL. Much easier.

Thank you. I am pulling my pond snails out of my 40 but I also have somebody sending me some ramshorn, so hopefully good for a little bit, thanks though.
