Hey ya'll! Been a while since I posted, life gets busy!

Heres the topic:
My LFS went out of business and I need a place/website to order snails.
Who has used what site?
Do you recommend a specific one?
Any info about deliveries, quick snips of experiences would be amazing!
 
I've ordered from this website multiple times and never had an issue.
https://www.reefcleaners.org/
They sell dry rock, snails, hermit crabs, crabs and all kinds of other stuff.
 
I've used reefcleaners & kpaquatics for most of my CUC needs. Both are great to deal with and have excellent, healthy critters. They both have discounted shipping on some things which is really nice. Everything always arrived well packaged, healthy, and active almost immediately.
 
I have used reefcleaners before and had a so-so experience. Most of the snails seem to end up dead after a few weeks. Liveaquaria is who I have been using lately. They have you do a drip acclimation and the snails and hermits seem to do a lot better for me. But, they are definitely pricier than reefcleaners is.
