About This Collection

Mystery Snails

Mystery Snails (Pomacea diffusa) are large, peaceful freshwater snails available in colors such as blue, gold, ivory, black, and mixed-color packs. Adults can reach about 2 inches in shell diameter. Keep Mystery Snails in a mature aquarium with stable mineral-rich water, a secure lid, and direct supplemental feeding. They graze algae and biofilm but should not be expected to live on tank leftovers alone. Their visible egg clutches are laid above the waterline, making reproduction easier to manage. Mystery Snails ship Monday through Wednesday.
