aquarium snails ampulyarii

Snail ampulyarii quite large: the size of the shell reaches 7-8 inches. Despite its size, it moves very quickly. By the way, it has a rather acute sense of smell that allows it to instantly feel the appearance of the feed.

Aquarium snails ampulyarii almost omnivorous. Obviously, in nature, they are content with vegetation, but in the aquarium are not averse to profit fish food of animal origin.

Compared with other species of snails, they are certainly smart, but a little can't compete, so they often go hungry, and it means that it is not necessary to keep them in an aquarium with high vegetation. And the size does not particularly allow, snails simply break the plant.

There is another alternative – feed ampulyarii food, unfit for fish, for example, carrot or cucumber. In short, these molluscs are extremely unpretentious. The only thing that can harm them is soft water, which destroys their shell.

what to feed snails ampulyarii

They are perfect for tropical aquariums, where the optimal water temperature is 20 degrees Celsius. At too high temperature they behave more actively and more often proliferate. Incidentally, with regard to the definition of the sexes: snail ampulyarii different sexes, and sex determination – a complicated matter. So if you want to see the offspring of their Pets, then they need to have at least three. But keep in mind that 10 gallons of water is allowed only one clam.

It Should be noted that proximity to the fish they carry is wonderful. Medium-sized peaceful fish not hurt them, if only will get hungry, you can pull their antennae. But the clams quickly adapt to it.

That's all! As you can see, a pet will not bring trouble, but on the contrary, will be a spectacular addition to the aquarium. And eating the vegetation on its walls, will be a great “cleaner”.
