Blueberry Snails | Freshwater Snail

The blueberry snails are gorgeous with vibrant colors on their bodies. They aren’t as active as some other snails. The order came with a baby that had been born in transit but he didn’t make it. But so far these two are thriving, it’s been 2 weeks. I’d hoped for a male and female (to breed) but I’m pretty sure they are both female. If they come in stock again I might try a couple more.

My snail arrived active and healthy. I was able to schedule the exact day I wanted my snail (+guppies) delivered on. They were all well packaged and came on time, with the heat pack still warm. My blueberry snail is definitely my favorite addition to my tank!

I ordered 2 blueberry snails right before the deep freeze hit in late January. Flip did the right thing and held back livestock shipments until things got a little warmer. I paid the extra $14 for next day shipping and believe it is crucial during cold weather and definitely needed with blueberries (they seem a bit sensitive). When they arrived with a still warm heat pack the water temp in the bag was 50 degrees- had it been regular shipping I don’t think they would have made it. I acclimated them and got them in the tank and one started moving right away but the other took a few days. Since then they have been very active and they LOVE catappa leaves, if I cannot find them they are somewhere in the leaves. Get yourself the giant catappa leaves/axolotl size and they will be happy. Been keeping them with neos at 250ish TDS, 74 temp and using bacter ae and shrimp fit as recommended. Today they had their first baby! So happy 😃

I only ordered one blueberry snail because although I did my research there is just not tons of info out there about them. This one arrived 2 months ago and was healthy but so very tiny. I'm not sure if she has had other babies before today but after being in one spot in the tank for close to 24 hours, which is rare for this little one, I noticed an itty bitty baby on her back and now know for sure that she is a female. Again, I have no clue if she has had other babies or not since they are so small, grow SO slow and are camouflaged by the dark wood in my tank that they enjoy hanging out on but I guess Ill know once they get bigger and I see them hanging out.

So i purchased 3 Blueberry Snails that were extremely smaller than expected. They appeared to me as younger snails and I believe that shipping young snails is a risk for damage that may not be obvious at first glance. I noticed within the weeks having them they seemed lethargic and slow. Additionally, upon arrival one had a broken shell which was the first to die within the week of having him. They had enough food and resources so unsure what went wrong. I would suggest not shipping these type of snails at younger ages due to the risk of internal damage and damage to shell. I do want to note these snails are beautiful, but the price I paid for them to only die within a month of obtaining then was not worth it.

I love these snails, and I really enjoy observing them! The largest Blueberry popped two baby Blueberries

I received my Blueberry Snails quickly and in good health. Within days they gifted me with a baby Blueberry. They're doing great in their new home!

I want to start off by saying I’m newer to snails, but I had researched these and hoped they’d be a vibrant addition to my currently snail + plant only tank. Purchased 4, and while none were DOA, one had a small chip out of the shell, but I believe I also ended up with one birthed in transit. They were barely noticable moving for the first several days. 2 of the 4 picked up in activity after a settling in period, seems like the other 2 have only declined in health/activity and one has finally passed after 3 weeks. I will definitely try for more in another batch since they are definitely as cool as pictured online.

My snail was beautiful when it arrived. It immediately went under the substrate and stayed for a week until it popped up dead. I was really heart broken. My other snails are fine. I will likely order more once the weather is better. Flip aquatics did a great job with communication and packaging. I also bought 3 ADFs and they are doing great!

I followed the acclimation guide provided, and the Amano shrimp from the same order are doing excellent. However, both snails died within a week.

This tank is well established and over a year old. I've had no other loss of life.

Blueberry Snail | Viviparus sp.

Snail arrived as deceased! I was so excited to try to have it breed.

They were very cute, but immediately one started hanging out of its shell in a weird way. I messaged Flip Aquatics to ask about it and they said it was normal. Within two days of receiving that reply it died. There is supposed to be another one in the tank, but I haven’t seen it since day one. I’m pretty sure it is gone as well.

I love the blueberry snails. The bright orange tentacles just tops it all off.

Well packaged!

Don’t waist your time typing special request and snail shell was already turning white when I got the snail in. Waist of money

All of my snail arrived alive plus seller throw in an extra in the bag and to my surprise, there are 6 babies blueberry snail also in the bag. I guess they giving birth during shipping. These blueberry snail looks like not as active as nerite snail. But I give it a try since my nerite lay eggs all over my woods and plants.

I bought two Blueberry Snails a month+ ago . They arrived very active and settled into my established tank well.

Just noticed a BABY Blueberry Snail today. I couldnt believe it. So im doing something right lol!

Not much is known on proper care for these guys. So i was a bit neevous. So far so good.

These snails are so unique and their coloration is really nice. I appreciate that they’re live bearers so they don’t lay eggs everywhere and only reproduce with a mate every few weeks. From what I know they’re a bit more rare as far as snails go so they’re definitely a very cool addition to any tank. Unfortunately one of the snails I received was in poor health when it arrived and died shortly after but customer service at Flip was great to deal with and I look forward to ordering from them again soon!

Cute little snails love them

I received 3 healthy snails and they are thriving and doing well! I love them and may want to get a few more when they are back in stock! :-)

Very cool snail with orange and blue coloration. They move very slow!! But are fun to watch. And they won’t infest your tank as they multiply slowly with about 1 live baby a month! Love them!!

So cool, thanks again

Still alive, but no spots on them. Ordinary Grey color. Overall I like them
