Description
Blue Mystery Snails | Pack of 5
Blue Mystery Snails are an attractively colored variant of a fully aquatic mystery snail. They may display hues of blue on a predominantly dark-colored shell. Like all snails, they have a spiral shell in either oblong or round shape. They grow to about 1 – 2 inches in diameter.
How to Care for Mystery Snails
Mystery snails, also known by their scientific name Pomacea Bridgesii, are very easy to take care of and will thrive in a wide range of environments. Provided with a proper environment, they practically take care of themselves. They prefer water temperatures from 70 F to 82.5 F and a pH of around 7 or above. They will thrive in aquariums of all sizes and will appreciate live aquarium plants in their habitat as well as hiding places provided by rocks, driftwood, and other aquarium decorations.
Mystery Snails are primarily herbivorous and will actively graze on algae or decaying plant matter. If made available, they will also consume any remaining fish food. They are active throughout the day and watching them crawl on an aquarium glass, plants, rocks, or other decorations, scraping algae with their mouth, can be quite mesmerizing. The result of their activity is less algae, detritus, and other decaying matter in the aquarium. They are a perfect cleaning crew and are especially beneficial in a planted aquarium for their ability to remove algae.
Mystery Snails are peaceful and will do well with most fish. However, they should not be housed with large and aggressive fish.

Better than the picture!
Posted by Gabrielle . on 4 Aug 2023I bought 5 blue mystery snails. I wish I could upload a picture with this review because they are SO pretty. The posted photo does not do them justice. All of them arrived alive and well with healthy shells. These were active right away when I added them to my tank after acclimating them (within an hour all of them were exploring my tank). I ordered a total of 15 mystery snails from here, received 16 snails, all alive and healthy, and no hitchhikers! All of the snails are good size. Shipping was fast. Definitely recommend purchasing from here.

They aren't blue, they are normal tan colored but great nevertheless
Posted by Aaron Collier on 30 Apr 2020Great snails, nothing bad to day besides the color not being as advertised, or maybe I got my hopes up about the shell color.

Pretty fast for some snails.
Posted by Dennis on 26 Feb 2020My glass has probably never been cleaner. They’re suuuper active and get around the 50g breeder size without ever getting tired.
