    “Garden Snail” refers to the species of snail.

    You can keep them indoors in a glass terrarium habitat

      I accidently got a population of snails in one aquarium, and they really added beauty and specks of interesting life on both terrain and glass. Their shells where tiny but pretty, and I can really see how nice larger ones would be in a terrarium.

      I’m fortunate enough that I can just go outside in my garden in the summer to see them, but if I lived in a city that would definitely be a nice habitat to keep

        Snails are a common pest in the aquarium community because it’s easy to accidentally transport a bajillion snail eggs home on that new plant you just bought.

        I had a snail infestation that was beyond the point of my being able to manage it (without chemicals, which I wasn’t into) and had given up … until I got a few pea puffers.

        In a week they cleaned the whole tank.

        I think it was just fun for them.

        Little murder balls.
