Japanese Black Trapdoor Snails
Anyone use these in there turtle tanks? I'm in need of some algae control and I've read these work well in ponds.
Once again, any advice is appreciated.

Black Trapdoors are a hard shelled snail but being live bearers you don't have to put up with egg clusters as with other kinds and they don't eat plants. It seemed that my turts left the Trapdoors alone.
