3 Chestnut Mystery Snails (Pomacea Bridgesii) Live Freshwater Snail

Description: Mystery Snails are one of, if not THE most popular freshwater snails in the aquarium hobby, and for good reason! They are highly unique in appearance with theirlarge and colorful shells, their iridescently marked bodies, and their swaying tentacles. These snails, which come in several different colors, are particularly excellent for adding decoration to any aquarium, but they also make themselves extremely useful by vigorously cleaning up waste and excess food! OverviewMystery snails are extremely popular for their stunning colors as well as their practical benefits. They work hard to clean algae off of glass, plants, and decorations, they eat hair algae, and they keep your substrate clean and the correct color. Mystery snails are completely peaceful, and therefore safe to keep with any fish, shrimp, or plants. What differentiates these snails from other types of snails is their unique breathing and breeding techniques. They can breathe both through their gills and through a tube that extends out of the front of their bodies. They extend this tube up above the water line and then move back and forth to take the air in. If you search on the Internet for mystery snails, many results will state that these are the same species as Apple snails. Our Mystery snails are NOT Apple snails, though they do resemble them in shape and general appearance. Apple snails are considered an invasive species and are illegal to own in the United States. OurMystery snails do not grow to the tremendous size that Apple snails do (often as big as an apple!). These are freshwater snails and their adaptable nature makes them suitable for just about any freshwater aquarium. They are very popular for planted tanks and community tanks, and many people use them in large aquariums for waste management and algae control.
