you sure you want Ramshorn? 

i had a couple in my aquarium and they breed like crazy and in the end were a bigger issue than the algae =p haha

Really, ramshorns are awesome for ponds I reckon. Easy to eradicate if required.

pest in aquariums, but fantastic in ponds as they keep to a more natural population when not in the confines of a tank.

Ramshorn ones are alright, it's the icecream cone ones that are a pest. You can put bristlenose in at this time of year.

if you want to travel up my way you can grab some snails out of my pond - as many as you want to catch....big pond
