Critter Packs? A Good Idea?
 
My bro in law is heading out near lilypons.com in MD this weekend, and plans
to pick up a critter pack. It has 18 snails and 18 tadpoles (bull frog we
think). We're splitting the cost of $60.00.

Any thoughts?

Bring a cooler along to transport them in.
Our ups guy left a package of snails on our front porch in full sun -

-- the snails help clean the bottom ( Japanese trapdoors ) and dont do
any dammage to plants you cant see the litle buggers so be carefull when
workin in the pond that you dont accidently sterp on one
the tads help keep bugs and some algae etc down and they are fun to
watch when they do come up

An ecological favor? Verify the critter pack is comprised of native
species. It makes a difference.
