Rabbit Snails (Tylomelania sp.)

Description

Rabbit Snails are unique and fascinating freshwater snails known for their long, cone-shaped shells and distinctive “rabbit-like” faces with extended antennae. These slow-moving, peaceful invertebrates make an excellent addition to planted and community aquariums, adding both character and functionality.

Available in a range of natural colours from deep browns to orange-toned bodies depending on the variety, Rabbit Snails are constantly active, grazing on surfaces and exploring their environment. They feed on biofilm, algae, and leftover food, helping to keep the aquarium clean.

Rabbit Snails are livebearing and reproduce very slowly, making them easy to manage without the risk of overpopulation. Their calm nature and unusual appearance make them a popular choice for aquarists looking for something a little different.

Note: This is a live animal. Sise, colour, and shell pattern may vary naturally.
