Why Add Snails to Your Tank?
Snails are small, quiet and useful. They clean as they crawl, and many are fun to watch.
● They eat algae off glass, rocks and decor
● They clear up leftover fish food
● They add colour and movement to your tank
● They are easy to care for
Our Most Popular Snail Species
Nerite Snails
Nerites are our top pick for algae control. They graze all day and rarely breed in freshwater, so you will not end up with hundreds. We offer Zebra, Horned, Batman, Batik and Staghorn Sun varieties.
Mystery Snails
For something bigger and bolder, try our Gold or Chocolate Mystery Snails. They glide around the tank and clean up as they go. They are peaceful and get along well with most fish.
Rabbit Snails
Rabbit snails stand out with their tall, cone-shaped shells. We stock Orange, Black Spotted, Yellow and Chocolate types. They are a lovely centrepiece for any planted tank.
Assassin Snails
Have a snail problem? Assassin Snails hunt and eat pest snails. They are a simple, natural fix, and they start from just £0.75.
Simple Care Tips
Snails are easy to keep if you follow a few basics.
- Keep your water clean and stable
- Add calcium to help their shells stay strong
- Feed them algae wafers or blanched veg if algae is low
- Avoid copper-based medicines, as they harm snails
