The Malaysian trumpet snails is a burrowing snail that is great if you have any sized planted tank, these snails will aerate the substrate when they burrow by releasing trapped gases caused by decaying organics, these gases if not released will cause the root system of live plants to eventually die or even kill live fish

Happy with product, great seller. Highly recommened!
Very, very, very happy with these snails, and with this seller. My first order arrived alive and healthy, but unfortunately I had a problem with my aquarium that I didn't realize until after I had killed the poor things. After posting my first review, which stated I was happy even though I had screwed up, the seller went above and beyond and contacted me about replacing them, even though they didn't need too. I just received the replacements, after doing a 70% water change, and they are acclimating nicely. I will order from this seller again in the future if I find myself needing more snails.

Quite satisfied
I wanted a few of these fellas to help stir the substrate and get at any organic bits stuck between the gravel between water changes. I received a mix of sizes, from the very tiny to a couple of 1/4" specimens. There was a nice note saying that there weren't many larger ones at the time, so a few extra smaller ones were added. That worked for me. I did not notice any DOAs (MTS are supposed to be pretty tough, anyway) and they are doing well in my 10 gallon tank.

Great fresh water cleanup crew
Came well packaged, all seemed to be alive and buried themselves quickly. One of the things you have to understand with these snails is you should almost never see them during the day, so don't be surprised if you add them and they stay missing for a month or two. They will only come out at night or if the gravel/sand is starting to overpopulate with them. A sand bed is best for them but gravel works well too.

I am happy with this purchase
I actually ordered and received 20 mixed snails (the others were ramshorn snails and pond snails). They were all teeny tiny and all alive. They are all alive to this day and are growing bigger. I am happy with this purchase.

but I am bad with measurements anyway
There didn't seem to be that many in the package. They were small than I expected, but I am bad with measurements anyway.
