These are full grown harvested snails, not small tank raised snails. They are great for cleaning sand beds, refugia, and sumps and keeping your tank glass clean. They like to eat detritus stuck in the substrate. In the process they turn your substrate over helping to keep it clean and helping to lower phosphates. They live for years, feeding on algae and carrion particles on the substrate. They move fast in the aquarium.
