Rabbit snails, Tylomelania sp., are a cone-shaped freshwater snail native to the lakes and rivers of Sulawesi, Indonesia. Rabbit snails can grow to about 5 inches in length, with s hell colors that range from yellow, brown, and black to various patterned varieties. Unlike many other snails, they give birth to live young, usually producing one or two offspring at a time, rather than laying clutches of eggs. This makes them less likely to overpopulate an aquarium. Rabbit snails are peaceful and compatible with a variety of tank mates, including small fish and other invertebrates, making them ideal for community tanks. They prefer harder water (pH 7-8.5), with temperatures between 22-28°C (72-82°F), mimicking their natural tropical environment. A well-planted tank with soft substrate is ideal, as they enjoy burrowing and grazing on algae, biofilm, and decaying plant matter. Show more
