What the source identifies
The freshwater product page specifically excludes freshwater crustaceans, with shrimp, crabs and lobsters as examples.
Where the evidence stops
A crustacean restriction cannot be translated into an answer for every mollusc. Plant wording elsewhere on the page does not remove the crustacean restriction.
What to check on your bottle
Check the exact aquarium label title and registration number if printed. Keep freshwater shrimp, snails and plants as separate questions.
