still legal in Minnesota, we sell them at petco, my tank stays about 68F in the winter. mine has slowed down but is still active. 64 might be too low though.
 
why not get some native snails? They survive the winters every year. I got mine from the boundry waters in northern Minnessota and they are loving my warm Florida tanks. They must be Canadian.
