Pagoda Snail
Unusual spired snail that benefits from an established oxygen-rich aquarium.
Planning your aquarium
The library starting point is 15+ US gallons. Check adult size, grazing surface, oxygenation, and food supply.
Stable water and adequate dissolved minerals help protect shell growth. Do not assume that every snail eats the same foods or that an aquarium has enough natural algae.
Behavior and tankmates

Check tankmates for snail-eating behavior, and keep medication ingredients in mind. Some snails reproduce readily, while others require specialized breeding conditions.

Food options: Algae wafers, Biofilm, Sinking foods.
Offer supplemental foods when the tank does not provide enough natural grazing. Remove uneaten food before it fouls the water.
