Blueberry Snails are stunning snails that are renowned for their blue coloration and intricate patterns, making them a striking addition to any freshwater tank or pond. They grow to a manageable size of 1-2 inches in diameter. Besides their visual appeal, Blueberry Snails are excellent algae eaters, helping to keep your tank clean and balanced by consuming algae and organic waste. As livebearers, they reproduce regularly, giving birth to small, fully-formed young every 1-3 weeks, ensuring a continuous and fascinating display of snail life.
Easy to care for, Blueberry Snails are peaceful and non-aggressive, making them a perfect fit for community tanks. They require minimal maintenance, but regular monitoring of water quality and occasional feeding with algae wafers or blanched vegetables will keep them healthy. These snails are shipped securely to ensure they arrive in great condition.
We keep these snails on pool filtered sand and in bare bottom tanks with a Matten filters. We feed NorthFin Foods along with Indian Almond Leaves for natural biofilm. We also use LED lighting to provide enough natural algae growth for them to feed.

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 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
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.
