Yellow Apple Snails - Brighten Your Aquarium with Bold Color and Cleanliness

Add a burst of sunshine to your aquarium with the Yellow Apple Snail (Pomacea canaliculata). These eye-catching snails, known for their vibrant yellow shells, are as striking as they are functional. Perfect for both beginners and experienced aquarists, Yellow Apple Snails are natural algae eaters that contribute to keeping your tank clean and beautiful.

Key Features:

  • Vibrant Yellow Shells: Yellow Apple Snails (Pomacea canaliculata) are easily recognizable thanks to their bright, golden-yellow shells that add a cheerful, bold accent to any aquarium.

  • Efficient Algae Eaters: These snails are great at grazing on algae, detritus, and biofilm, helping to keep your tank surfaces clean and your water quality pristine.

  • Large, Slow-Moving Creatures: With their gentle pace, Yellow Apple Snails are easy to observe and interact with, adding a relaxed atmosphere to your tank.

  • Hardy & Low Maintenance: Known for their resilience, these snails adapt well to a wide range of water conditions and require minimal care, making them an excellent choice for both beginners and seasoned aquarists.

  • Non-Invasive: While they are prolific breeders in the right conditions, they generally do not overpopulate freshwater tanks, as long as the tank’s conditions are carefully controlled.

Tank Compatibility:

  • Freshwater Aquariums

  • Peaceful community tanks

  • Tankmates: Compatible with most peaceful fish, shrimp, and other invertebrates (avoid aggressive fish that may harm them).

Care Tips:

  • Keep the water temperature between 72°F-82°F, with a pH of 7.0-8.0 and moderate hardness.

  • Provide plenty of calcium-rich foods like calcium supplements or cuttlebone to help maintain strong, healthy shells.

  • Offer a balanced diet of algae, vegetables (like zucchini or spinach), and high-quality snail pellets.

  • Ensure your tank is well-maintained, as these snails are sensitive to water quality, particularly to high levels of ammonia or nitrates.
