I had considered adding these to a pond we had since it was not worth much anyway and one of them was full of Crawfish and the other mussels. I think they would love each of them.
But last year we had the drought and I found out how shallow the pond really was so they would have died anyway.
They are pretty hard to keep alive, but I think if you had a nice stock tank with an agitator on it they may be ok for at least 1-3 hours.
This is still a plan of mine as I would like to add 2-5 to my small pond we feed just to see if they would take to feed, also I think they could help RES out with the snails, and I would not think you would see any recruitment in a pond with any other fish in it as they would enjoy the floating treats as a snack.
