What is the method for Acclimatization of Snails after shipping when they come in no water or a wet papper packing. I can't see why dripping water into their bags is not the same thing as just dropping them in the tank after they are adjusted to tempature. Little help thx.

shoot, i was told from a couple of online vendors to acclimate them to the tank temp and dump them in. something about the waste in the water I believe. That's always worked for me, no losses.
