I am getting a bunch of snails for my tank delivered today and was wondering if I need to temp or drip acclimate them like I do for fish.

Thank you!

temp then slow drip. snails dont take shipping well. so slow and easy and a very long slow drip will hopefully take care of it.
 
Great, thank you!!!
