My longnecks ages vary from 18 months to 20+ years . As for sizes, I have 7 longnecks currently that range from 75mm - 196mm SCL. The smallest started at 28mm and 5g, and the largest currently is 196mm and 668g.
As for the snails... I dont know how I would go mailing them to QLD BUT have a look at your local pet shops. Normally you can find rams horns in the tanks with the aquairum plants. Pet shops normally give them to you if you ask |

Wouldn't feed too much of the turtle blocks because there are no regulations on what goes into them. Strange1 has some good foods plus you probably want to add a calcium block in the water and give UV basking area because jouveniles are susceptible to metabolic bone disease. | |
