Special requirements

  • Breeding Constraint

    These snails will not overpopulate a freshwater aquarium because their eggs require brackish water to hatch.

  • Dietary Supplementation

    While they are excellent algae eaters, they benefit from a diet that includes protein, blanched vegetables like spinach or zucchini, and mulberry leaves.

  • Shell Health

    Thrives in harder water with a higher pH, which provides the necessary minerals for maintaining a healthy and strong shell.
