We keep fish, shrimp and snails with our plants. These algae eaters don't get sold, they live in these aquariums to eat any nuisance algae that could arise.  We don't believe it's possible to supply live plants that are 100% free of snails/eggs, algae, or duckweed. Given that, we provide the highest level of care and attempt to minimize these natural elements as some consider them pests. We believe that snails are beneficial. Algae and snail outbreaks are typically the result of an imbalance and will be in harmony once balanced. The only way to get true 100% pest free plants is to buy tissue culture plants, which can come at higher costs and have a longer adjustment period to growing underwater in your planted aquarium.
