I feel like it's worth the small extra cost for insuring a stable temperature environment for the living creatures we all love to order. If you're not willing to pay an extra $3 or $5 for that, you really don't care about the lives you're ordering. Plain and simple.
These are large. About the size of a larger marble. Darker than the pictures, but still so cool looking with the stripes!
I have many Japanese Trapdoor snails that I got a few years ago that regularly breed (bought 4, still have them and more than a dozen babies and given about another 6 away!) I hope these 3 have the same success in breeding! If not, I'll order 3 more in the future, as these might be all of one sex.
Packaging was excellent, with each bag (I ordered 6 different kinds of snails) double bagged and so full of oxygen they were like tight balloons. The thick paper towel was water soaked. Each bag was packed tightly into the box so they couldn't bounce around and they were all double wrapped in bubble wrap inside the Styrofoam box insert, that was well worth the price, inside the shipping box.
Shipping, from my ordering to their collecting the 16 snails of 6 different species, to packing and taking to the USPS was quick! From there, it's out of AquaticMotiv's control and completely on the USPS to do things correctly. For some unknown reason, the
USPS first sent them to Puerto Rico, instead of Reno, and it took 5 days! Which i reported to AquaticMotiv
and they replied within hours, apologized for the USPS
and let me know that if there was any problem once I received the snails, theyd have my back. But the snails arrived the next day and all seemed fine.
I've bought plants a few times before, and now snails, and never disappointed.
Francisco is a wonderful human being and quick to reply and help! Thank you again, Francisco!
Highly recommend!
These are small, as was stated in the item description, about the size of a Pea, and SO COOL looking!
1 is being shy and hasn't come out of its shell yet, but it's operculum is intact and it doesn't have the 'smell of death' so I think it'll be fine.

If you're ordering anything living and expect it to look like the pictures, then you should just buy some manmade plastic thing because living things vary.
Do you complain at fast food places? Because you don't get anything that looks like their ad pics!
And sometimes, like with these, they're nicer than the pics!
