Description: If temperatures in your state (or mine, NJ) is below 55 degrees F, this sale may have to be canceled, for the snails. They are tropical. The standard layover in nj is 24 hours in a unheated situation. I am open to 1: local pick up. 2: hand delivery, whereby I travel to your destination and physically hand you the box. Make an offer. The snail will eat a healthy plant IF you do not feed them “what they consider adequate”, the snails WILL reduce dead fish they may find, I have never seen them attack a fish. Tank mates should be the smaller fish, and shrimp, larger aggressive fish will nip, (rip off and eat) the eye sockets and antenna. Specifically do not house with mosquito fish, mollies, or ANY cichlids, smaller one will nip until they kill them, larger ones will outright consume them. The creature is listed as a beginner category as they will thrive on fish foods, and occasional boiled string beans . I personally recommend a heater, temperature reading device, a fair quality light, and a filter system, being either a hang on or in tank bio sponge type. An Air stone, and air pump, minimum of 1 gallon, and preferably larger. Most of my group reach 2+ inches. The snails which are sent out are pea sized to half done sized. As a suggestion, boil up ( or microwave 5 canned string beans, (salt free, or low sodium) and place in front of them (in tank on arrival) crush slightly to add to the ease of attack! These snails WILL eliminate bladder snails, and eat other snail eggs (flats of jelly on glass/rocks/plants/wood. No PO BOX orders…. NO P.M.B. (postal mail boxes) The delivery address must be where the LIVE creatures can be accepted by the patron, business address, if used is the problem of the ordering patron, a simple fix is to change your address” Some states may limit shipping of this tropical snail, most northern (frost zones) states, do allow them. Shipping may be delayed to investigate sales to states with such restrictions, usually a permit could be had, as such proof of having that permit is required. D.o.a. (DEAD ON ARRIVAL) policy is you must show dead snail in original container within 2 (two) hrs of delivery, dead snails stink. Do not wait 10 to 15 hours and then decide they are dead, contact me immediately. SNAILS CAN AESTIVATE, BUT, AN AESTIVATING SNAIL IS NOT DEAD. Only addresses of which deliveries can be had are acceptable, if the order is not for a business with which deliveries are not acceptable during normal delivery times, we at crayfish to go are not accepting the order. Unfortunately the delivery zone, and my zone, and the areas in between may be scheduled to dip well below 55 degrees, as such I cannot trust the USPS to make delivery before they go subtropical in temperature. Normal shipping should resume by mid March perhaps sooner, but it is an unknown variable.
