from over 3,000 reviews "With its delicate red-pink appearance, the little Pink Lady snail is a real girl's dream! Pretty little patterns decorate their thick-shelled housing and act in the aquarium as a real eye-catcher. The mini snail originating from Indonesia is scientifically also called Clithon sowerianum and migrates between brackish and fresh water, which is why an uncontrolled reproduction in the aquarium is rather impossible. Especially in beautifully planted aquascapes it looks great.
With a final size of just 2 cm this pretty slimy snout remains quite small and is therefore also very suitable for the nano aquarium. As a growth and algae eater , it keeps the aquarium sparkling clean and also eats deposits from plants and decorations. It does not eat healthy plants. It also likes to graze brown autumn leaves and the biofilms formed on them. Therefore it is best suited for well acclimated tanks, where enough growth has formed, because our natural specimens do not know any other food in the beginning and would starve in freshly established aquariums
The Pink Lady Snail can be socialized with other snails, dwarf and fan shrimps, but also Amano shr imps. Due to its semi-circular shell shape, it can also be kept with curious fish such as livebearers or danios.
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 like racing sn ails 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 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 Slug Barrier you prevent the escape and loss of your snails from the aquarium.
