Red Ram Horn Aquarium Snail (Aquarium Cleaner) $4.99 Each + $3 Postage ($14 Express, $0 SYD C&C) @ Sydney Aquascapes

20

We have a new batch or red ram horns ready to go!

These are small bright red snails, great for any freshwater aquarium. Posted to anywhere in Australia.
They are quite hardy, and although prefer an temperature range of 18-28 C can survive lower temperatures over winter.

Ram Horns can grow to over 2cm in size, but usually slow down their growth significantly at about 1cm in diameter.

FAQ:
People often inquire about snails exploding in population when introduced to a tank, but there is a bit of a misconception with this: Snails will propagate until they reach an equilibrium with the food available for them in the tank. If you add snails and their population explodes, it means there is tones of food (usually left over fish food) for them to eat, and they are eating it. In other words: Doing their job. Once the food is gone, their population will reduce to enough snails that can survive on how much food is left after your fish are done with it. If they still keep up a massive population, that usually means you are feeding your fish too much.

Postage:
Snails are very resilient to postage issues, so much so we can send them in letters and 99% of the time there is no issue. We do replace or refund fully if there are any issues with your order as well anyway.

      An apt description for our local post sometimes as well :)

  • What size are they currently?

    • 0.5-1.5cm mixed sizes. They will be about 1cm on average

  • I ordered some snails a couple of weeks. can confirm no issues with delivery however my gold fish devoured them in about 5 seconds of snails entering the fish tank. Hey OP, any suggestions how I can avoid this from happening again?

    • Trumpets should survive gold fish, or jumbo mysteries. If you order some let me know what happened ill add some extra for free to cover your previous snails 🐌 😉

  • Hello again. What kind of set ups do you breed and keep your snails in?

      We have racks of medium sized tanks with an interconnected filter system and a drip and outflow for water changes.

      • Sound awesome. Do you have any photos or videos anywhere?

        Im about to finally get back into the hobby so im really interested in set ups.
