Assassin Snails are one of the most useful snails in the hobby, they're excellent at controlling pest snail populations without the need for harsh chemicals. They target common pests like pond snails, Malaysian trumpet snails, ramshorn snails, and bladder snails. They will eat snails their size or smaller but generally leave larger snails like Mystery or Nerite Snails alone. However, large groups can sometimes team up on bigger snails.
While they’re safe with most fish, plants, and invertebrates, you should be cautious when keeping them with shrimp, as they might occasionally prey on them. Assassin Snails have stunning yellow and black stripes, making them really stand out in any tank. They also love to burrow, so sand is the ideal substrate for them. Like all snails, they are sensitive to copper, so it's important to monitor copper levels in your water, however, if you're looking for a plant fertilizer, Shrimple has a copper-free one that way your snails and plants can both be happy!
The assassin snails will be near adult size which is usually around 1/4 of an inch.
Please note: During shipping, snails sometimes go into a hibernation-like state and may not become fully active for up to a week once acclimated to your aquarium.
They are beautiful little snails, they like to bury themselves in the substrate so I don’t get to see them much during the day, they seem to be more active at night. Over all I am happy with them and will continue to get what i need or want from Flip Aquatics.
Like every thing I ordered live was actually live as if shipped and delivered same hour . 👍🏾
