Japanese Trapdoor Snail

$7.99

Japanese trapdoor snails are fascinating freshwater snails that make excellent aquarium pets due to their algae-eating habits, which help maintain a clean tank environment. They are relatively easy to care for and thrive in conditions similar to those preferred by most freshwater snails. These snails appreciate a tank with abundant rocks, plants, and hiding places, along with good filtration and aeration. To support healthy shell growth, it's important to provide calcium, either through supplements or calcium-rich food. Japanese trapdoor snails are peaceful creatures that can coexist harmoniously with other calm aquarium fish and invertebrates. Regular water changes and tank maintenance are essential for their well-being.
