Hi, AA as the subject says .. can these snails be put in a tank during cycle?
 
All inverts (snails, shrimp, etc) are extremely sensitive to Ammonia and Nitrites and should not be added to at tank until after it has been cycled. It's even better if you can wait until after the tank has matured for a few months to ensure that it is stable.
 
Thanks purrbox. I surely won't add them then.
