How do you care for snails and what they do for the ecosystem?

 

A Ramshorn Snail can do a good job keeping a tank clean by eating uneaten food, dead or decaying plant matter, debris, detritus, and soft algae buildup on hard surfaces. A Ramshorn Snail can be seen for hours on end, canvasing the tank for edible matter. Ramshorn Snails have the ability to move and bend their rubber-like bodies around very thin plant leaves, dangle from stems and stretch as they move from one hard surface to another. My Ramshorn Snails are fed calcium 2 times a week to help keep colour. A Ramshorn Snail can adapt to a variety of habitats, but they seem to really enjoy tanks with a variety of live plants. Live aquarium plants shed dead or dying plant matter into the water, serving as food for the snails. Tanks with live plants are never “too clean”, making Ramshorn Snails a good custodian. A Ramshorn Snail also enjoys a tank with lots of rocks, caves, and other interesting spots to explore.

 

All snails are sent out first class, I only send snail orders out Monday - Wednesday to avoid snails being stuck in the post!!

 

If snails arrive D.O.A photo or video evidence will be required to process any refund!
