YEAH!
I might have silkworms coming in tomorrow, also I have ghost shrimp and snails in my pond. I can also get live, refrigerated clams from my grocery store.

Um...
The snails are MTS and they can acclimate to brackish and even low end marine EASY. I had a load of those things in my molly tank that was pretty much seawater.
