Can a single pond snail produce more pond snails?

Definitely comes down to preference.

But some of the positives that have already been mentioned really can't be overlooked. Pond and bladder snails make for terrific cleaners. Eating dead fish, dead snails, dead shrimp, dead leaves? Huge win in my book.

They're super-fast at cleaning glass, too.
 
I can almost promise you there are already eggs in the tank.

I put 50ish Pond & Bladder Snails in a container over night to prepare for shipping this morning only to wake up to find at least 20 clutches of eggs.

Hopefully s/he will lay some eggs soon then. :icon_surp
