Overview

Mystery Snails — Colorful, Peaceful Tank Cleaners

Mystery Snails (Pomacea bridgesii) are large, peaceful freshwater snails available in stunning pink, purple, and yellow color morphs. Unlike most snails, they won't eat your live plants and they don't reproduce out of control in freshwater — making them an ideal choice for planted tanks and community setups. Their large size and gentle grazing make them mesmerizing to watch as they clean glass, decor, and substrate.

Care Guide

  • Tank size: 5 gallons minimum per snail; they produce more waste than smaller species
  • Water parameters: Temp 68–82°F, pH 7.0–8.0, GH 8–18 (hard water is essential for shell health)
  • Diet: Omnivore — algae wafers, blanched vegetables (zucchini, spinach), sinking pellets, and leftover food. Calcium supplementation is critical for strong shells
  • Tankmates: Peaceful with shrimp, snails, and community fish (tetras, rasboras, corydoras). Avoid loaches, pufferfish, cichlids, and assassin snails

Color Options

Available in Pink, Purple, and Yellow. Random pick — color may vary.

Tank setup

  1. Use a fully cycled aquarium before adding live animals.

  4. Avoid sharp decor that can damage fins or sensitive bodies.

Water parameters

  1. Keep ammonia and nitrite at 0 ppm before adding livestock.
  2. Maintain stable temperature and pH instead of chasing exact numbers.
  3. Perform regular water changes based on stocking level.

Feeding

  1. Feed a varied, species-appropriate diet and remove uneaten food promptly.
  2. Avoid overfeeding during the first day after arrival.

Compatibility

Review the product facts and current tank setup before introducing new livestock.
