Tips for a Successful Transaction


Read all the information the seller provides so you can make a smart decision. Sometimes there cannot be a TL;DR.

If you still have questions after reading everything, or have any special requests, ask before bidding. What you want may not be possible.

Check your email, including spam. It's our only means of contacting you.

Read the entire email, the last sentence may be a question. Not replying can delay shipment.

If you are having trouble receiving emails, you can see messages sent to you through the AquaBid messaging system by going HERE and entering your Username and Password.

Make sure the email and physical addresses on file with AquaBid and PayPal are up to date and correct.

Check your 10 day weather forecast. Most problems are caused by temperature extremes, both hot and cold.

The seller cannot make the package arrive on a certain day. Priority Mail doesn't have a guaranteed delivery date, it usually takes 2 or 3 days to arrive but may take longer.

15 + 5 Pink (Albino) Ramshorns

Photo above was taken April 20th under inexpensive cool LED lighting (no flash) and shows some of the snails you will receive. I usually do not photograph my snails under plant lights because it makes them look unnaturally pink. To see some pics from the past at different ages and in different (normal) lighting, click HERE to expand a slideshow (stays in same window). Any variations are environmental, they are genetically the same.

But you use plant lights?
And want to see what they will look like?
Okay, this is under an Azoo Tri-Power bulb.

The snails you will receive will be small to large pea sized, most of them will be breeding already, and yes, they breed true. I do not ship older large snails which are past their prime, less likely to ship & acclimate well and may die of old age soon after you receive them. The shells won't all be flawless but overall are good. More importantly, they are healthy (and happy?) and ready to be pretty janitors in your tank.

FYI, ALL Pink Ramshorns are complete albinos, there is no pink pigment, just their red blood. ALL Pink Ramshorns are brighter in warmer water and more pastel in cooler water, it varies only with how much hemoglobin is in their blood, more in warm, less in cool. ALL Pink Ramshorns have completely colorless shells, quite clear when young then gradually becoming translucent and nearly opaque when they get old. If the shell erodes or is abraded, the shell will appear frosted or even white. Anyone advertising otherwise either doesn't know what they are talking about or is purposely trying to be deceptive, you decide.

The winner will receive a comprehensive care sheet which can be downloaded and printed if desired. Briefly, no acidic water, no soft water, no big fish. They will eat soft algae if hungry but live plants only if starving. Temps up to 80F. These make good companions for guppies, nano fish and easy shrimp.

Term details are on my Just Me page which was updated August 24, 2014. Read it before bidding.

Payment is through PayPal only (you do not need an account, just a credit card), no e-checks. When paying with PayPal, you must use a shipping address, my account is configured to only accept PayPal Confirmed Addresses and I only ship to the address given in PayPal.

Priority Mail shipping is just postage for 2 pounds from 01888, $5.32 to $9.97. You can check that cost yourself at usps.com, it will be much faster than asking me for a quote, use the online price (Regional Rate Box A), not the post office price. I ship to PO Boxes if it's Confirmed Address.

The snails will be in a generous amount of water and divided between multiple bags. The box will be insulated with styrofoam. I am not offering a heatpack/coldpack. No shipping to locations with lows below freezing or highs above 85F.

Local pickup can be arranged at 462 Washington St Woburn MA 01801, weekdays, late afternoon.

Shipping will be delayed if extreme weather may endanger the animals, ...it's a hobby not an organ transplant!

LAG for 15 if delivered on time. The + quantity is extra and not covered by LAG.

Some of my other auctions may be combined with this for savings on shipping costs.


Thanks for looking and GOOD LUCK!
