I live in Redmond how about you? If you are not close by would you be willing to ship?

Check Farmland Pet & Feed in Silverdale! They stock them occasionally.

Oh jezz. just wiped out about 500 of those dang things a week ago. They can take over quickly I had to do a complete tank clean out.

yeah it sounds like mixed reviews on them. I just setup a sand substrate tank and it seems a lot of people say they help keep it from building up unwanted gas. I am not sure if it is crazy or not to purposely introduce snails into an aquarium

I have a ton of them. I bought them at a gsas auction because no one else wanted them and I felt that there were no bids. I wish I could travel back in time and stop myself from buying them!!

I have sand in all of my tanks and at water change time I run my fingers around in the sand and never have trouble with any sort of buildup. (I don't keep plants.) I really, really dislike them.

Hmm maybe I should just try with out them for a while. thanks for all the feedback!
