3 Trapdoor Snails
- This listing is for 3 Large Trapdoor Snails.
O
Originating from Asia, the Trapdoor Snail is very common in the aquarium hobby. Most Trapdoor Snails are captive-bred/farm raised these days. This incredible snail has a spiral like brown-green shell that can get up to 2" in length and about 1.5" wide. Trapdoors are a great addition to any aquarium and ponds. Since its big and robust (and has an amazing protective 'trapdoor') you can put this animal with any bigger fish. As long as the snail is big enough not to fit in the predator's mouth, you should be ok.
Since this snail can get pretty heavy we don't recommend adding it to a heavily planted tank with thin stemmed plants as it will lift them from the substrate or might break the stem trying to climb.
These snails are extremely hardy and live in a vast variety of water parameters. Very slow moving gastropods, always hungry and that will grown in a heart-beat.

RETURN POLICY
If you receive anything but a healthy snail, take 2 or 3 pictures in its unopened sealed bag and get in contact with us within 4 hours of the arrival of the package. We will get back to you after we've successfully examined the snail. If the snail is indeed dead, we will gladly send you a replacement or we'll refund you if the item is no longer in stock.
Upon receiving your snails, you may notice that they aren't moving. This is normal! When snails are shipped they become very stressed and their method of defense is to retrieve their bodies into the shell. Put them in your aquarium and wait a couple of hours. They should adjust and start working right away! (If a snail dies during shipping, its body will hang out the shell)
After contacting us, and after we give you the green light to return an item, you can do so by shipping the item to the address we will then provide to you.
