The Physa genus of snail aka as common pond snail has a relatively thin shell, thinner than most of the other aquatic snails. Numerous fish species will eat the Physa snails because the shells crush easily. But by far, the best sunfish to eat these snails are the redear and pumpkinseed sunfishes. I have also seen these snails in yellow perch stomachs. Snails of other genera usually have thicker shells and are not as well eaten by fish except maybe RES & PS.
