i have a small outside koi pond , would it be a good idea to put
a snail or 2 in it ? like do they clean the pond or something ?
sorry for seeming so dumb but i'm just learning , lol

Hi, Renee! Snails don't really clean up anything actually! rofl3.gif Besides, they might try to escape your pond!

Hey, Your not dumb for asking a question Renee! Never learn unless we ask right? smile.gif

I thought it'd be cool to put some of my snaily's in a blow-up pond thingy but then I thought they would have a better chance to escape like Erin said, Not to mention they are just lazy hog's and don't do a very good job vacuming around my tank... laugh.gif


Hey, At least you asked before just putting them in there!
exactly.gif Were all still learning around here, I still go with the good ol motto "You learn something new everyday" smile.gif

Plus, the Koi will probably torment the snail and eventually eat it. I have had goldies try to eat apple snails before, so I know a koi would.
