Hey guys I'm new to this forum and I'm currently cycling my new tank for a DP. I'm thinking of breeding pond snails for a source of food but with 0 knowledge on pond snails, I have a couple questions.
1. Do they need fully cycled water?
2. Can I breed them in lunch box sized containers?
3. Do they need an airpump?
4. What do I feed them?
5. What plants do I need to provide them with?
Sorry if it's posted in the wrong category
Thanks!!

Re: Pond snails
You really don't need snails, mine eat live black worms but they also eat thawed bloodworms
