anywhere around town w/ good deals on snails?

I bought some black nassarius snails from Elite on the 50 for 50 deal. They are in the sand most of the day but there is usually a dozen or so on the glass at any given time. At lights out or when I feed the fish they start to pop out of the sand in herds though (they also have no trouble flipping themselves over if need be)

I bought the same ones, little black ones. They are the hardest working snails I have ever owned. You do need sand though and when you feed it is amazing watching them pop up. These are the only snails that I can keep around. It seemed I was always replacing every other kind.
