Trapdoor Snails
Live Bearing Trapdoor Pond Snails are robust and sizable creatures that can greatly enhance any pool or aquarium environment. Their appetite for algae and green scum plays a crucial role in maintaining clear water, making them an essential addition to your pond. These snails not only help control algae growth but also act as natural decomposers, consuming dead plant matter and fish waste, which prevents the accumulation of harmful substances and improves overall water quality. By breaking down organic material, they facilitate nutrient cycling, enriching the ecosystem for plants and other aquatic life. Additionally, snails provide a vital food source for various pond inhabitants, including fish and amphibians, thereby supporting biodiversity. Their sensitivity to water conditions also makes them excellent indicators of a healthy ecosystem, reflecting adequate dissolved oxygen levels.

The table below shows the estimated shipping and pick-up weeks for destinations to USA states. These dates can change depending on weather and how strong the plants are at that time.
For example, a wet spring will have many clouds leading to less sunshine. Thus, the plants may need a bit longer to grow strong enough for transplanting and transit. With the planet heating up, a warm spring may help the plants grow strong enough to ship before the dates in this table.
