from over 3,000 reviews "The Genoppte Turmdeckelschnecke Tarebia granifera, also called Nöppi, belongs to the family of Turmdeckelschnecken, the Thiaridae. It has a beautiful, up to 1.8 cm long, elongated shell, which is a bit thicker and more sculpted than in other trumpet snails. This gives it a very beefy appearance. The shell is light brown to reddish brown in color and often has a fine black dot pattern. The foot of the Genoppten Turmdeckelschnecke is black.
The genoppi is separately sexed, but mainly females are found in aquaristics. They give live birth to their offspring and are capable of parthenogenesis, or virgin reproduction. In this process, the female animal clones itself, so to speak, and gives birth to noisy genetic twins of itself. The breeding of the Genoppten Turmdeckelschnecke is no problem at all, and already a single animal can multiply strongly. If you have a good food supply, you will have a lot of noppis in the aquarium very quickly - if you want to limit their population a bit, you have to be quite disciplined when feeding them.
Tarebia granifera do not need to be fed , they live on the remains they find, on algae and dead plant parts. The Nöppi does not go to living plants.
The Genoppte Turmdeckelschnecke displays an extraordinary behavior, which makes it a useful helper in all aquariums, in aquariums with fine gravel or sand even a necessary must: It burrows - comparable to earthworms on land - the substrate of the aquarium, loosens it, prevents hardening and deposits and thoroughly mixes the different layers. In this way, Nöppis also transport important nutrients to the roots of the plants and thus support them in their growth. At the same time, the industrious snails eat "waste" such as food remains or detritus that has settled in the substrate. During the day, the Genoppten Turmdeckelschnecken are hardly ever seen in the aquarium, because they devote themselves practically exclusively to their useful activities in the substrate of the aquarium. Therefore, they are inconspicuous and rarely seen even at high population densities. Only when it gets dark do they venture into the open water and can then sometimes be found on the aquarium glass.
Chrysalis snails that hang on the glass or plants even during daylight indicate poor water values. Due to this characteristic, the Genoppten Turmdeckelschnecken can be used also problem-free as natural "indicators" for the quality of the aquarium water.
Their special lifestyle and high reproduction rate allows them to be kept with virtually all other aquarium inhabitants.
Our food recommendation: With the Natureholic Snail Feed Power Paste you create a feeding lawn that is very well accepted by all aufwuchs feeding snails. Also delicate wild-caught snails such as racing snails or staghorn snails, which are stressed after transport and do not go to conventional food, can be fed up well with it.
Our plant recommendation: Use for the planting NatureHolic InVitros. These are free of snails, planarians and other unwanted co-inhabitants. Also free of algae spores, bacteria and fungi.
Expert Tip: We recommend for fish keeping the NatureHolic 3 Phase Liquid. The care set offers the best all-round protection for your animals. It ensures optimal conditions for successful breeding and keeping.
Actively prevent outbreaks: With the invisible Natureholic Snail Barrier you prevent the escape and loss of your snails from the aquarium.

Nachtschwärmer
Schnelle Lieferung, sehr gut verpackt. Die 5 Schnecken waren schnell im Sand verschwunden und sind nur noch einzeln ab und an zu sehen. Ein Gesamtüberblick ist nicht mehr möglich.
Schnecken haben sich eingegraben. Ab und zu sieht man sie auf dem Sandboden.
Scheint alles o.k.
