I was thinking i could put some rams, trapdoor, ivory/mystery, and trumpet snails in a 20 gal tall tank. Would they be ok? i was planning on breeding them and selling them off. sound like a good idea? i was also thinking about a bunch of clams. Would this be ok?
 
also, any sites that will sell a bunch of different color and spieces. I dont wanna go on aqua bid and pay shipping for every person i buy from.

will a bunch of different spieces of snails be ok in a 20 gal. Will they breed? simple question
 
yes, they will probably be okay. as for the breeding, know idea.
 
Ask Lupin and maybe he can sell you some!
 
Yes they will breed. Check out your local Petco/Petsmart. They will usually give you all the pest snails you want for free. I get my MTS & pond snails from the Petsmart down the street & I hit Petco once a week to clean out the ramshorn snails that hitch-hike on their bamboo shipments. Petsmart keeps their bamboo above the waterline, so they never have any rams...
 
aquabid can be a good place, I have also seen ebay with a good selection of snails from time to time. Locally, I have a very poor selection of snails.
