The snails arrived quickly and their shells are stunning with the black and yellow spiral pattern. They look great in my 55-gallon tank and have started eating algae naturally. Easy to care for and add a nice visual appeal.

I was impressed by how fast they settled into the tank. The glossy finish of their shells really enhances the tank’s look. They don’t seem to eat much, but they do help with surface algae.

Perfect for a beginner aquarist. The snails are active and clean the glass gently. I love the way they look and feel like a natural part of the tank.
