The Black Rabbit Snail (Tylomelania sp.) comes from the warm, clear lakes of Sulawesi, Indonesia. It has a long, spiral shell and a curious trunk-like face that make it one of the most eye-catching snails you can keep.

Rabbit Snails are peaceful cleaners that slowly move across the tank, eating algae, leftover food, and decaying leaves. They don’t harm live plants or other tank mates, making them perfect for planted and community aquariums.

They are larger than most aquarium snails, often growing up to 3 or 4 inches. Their slow, steady movement brings calm activity to the bottom of your tank. Unlike many small snails, they reproduce very slowly, so you never have to worry about them taking over your aquarium.

Every Rabbit Snail is carefully conditioned before shipping. Minor marks on their shells are normal for wild-caught snails and don’t affect their health. Our Live Arrival Guarantee provides peace of mind for all orders.

How to Care

Acclimate Rabbit Snails slowly to warm, stable water conditions. Provide a fine sand or smooth-gravel substrate so their long shells don’t chip. Supplement their diet with calcium-rich foods or cuttlebone for healthy shell growth. Avoid copper-based products—they’re toxic to all snails.
