I also breed snail....Apple sail I think they are called.
Any suggestions on raising the snail? I have some in a tank,
some in a bucket. Would really like to hear some advice.

Is there much of a danger from getting bloodworms from old standing
water in buckets left outside, and feeding these to fish in an
aquarium? I'm unsure if there is a high potential of disease transfer
or some other risk I may not know about. Any advice would be
appreciated. Well, most any advice. I'd like something better than
"If you are in any doubt, then you should not do it."

Thanks

I do it but it's only the odd few
hard to raise zillions of the things!
I breed snails to feed me puffer and these buckets often have lots in
them.
