Anyone located on the Big Island interested in apple snails (not sure if it's legal to ship)? My snails have been laying egg sacks all over my tank and I've been removing them but apparently I've missed one. Keep in mind these get big and eat plants. My largest one is larger than a golf ball.
 
Sorry, I don't think it's possible. I know that they're illegal in certain states as an invasive species. In fact this species (Pomacea canaliculata) of apple snail is illegal to import here. I can't find any information on shipping them out of Hawaii but I'm guessing even if it is possible I need to apply for a certificate.
