Mystery Snails In Outdoor Pond


Marianne

Recommended Posts

Just wondering if anyone knows if there's any risk involved in keeping mystery snails in an outdoor pond, in regards to them spreading I mean. The nearest natural pond/river is about 2-300 metres from here.

The reason I ask is I occasionally find ramshorn snails and pond snails in there, which I didn't put in, but they seem to thrive. Seriously, the biggest pond snails I've ever seen live in my pond. Their shells must be 1.5-2 cm long. So I thought, because I have lots and lots of mystery snails, they might thrive in the pond and help control algae. But if there's any risk of them spreading then obviously I won't.
