Its striking ivory shell and iridescent body enhance tank aesthetics while being safe for common community fish and plants. Backed by a 100% live arrival guarantee, it’s the perfect blend of functional pet and living decor for millennial aquarists seeking effortless style and eco-friendly tank care. ## Description Our large Ivory Mystery Snail has dual benefits — it is an elegant aquarium decoration, and acts as a natural fish tank clearer! This invertebrate consumes uneaten fish food, plus it clears off aquarium glass, plants, and decorations. It also filters substrate to keep it the correct color. This peaceful snail grows up to 3 inches in diameter as an adult and is safe with any nonaggressive fish, shrimp, or plants (such as java moss, desertcart sword plant, etc.). Ivory White Mystery Snails' shells are a striking cream color. Their bodies are white with breathtaking iridescent markings. Compared to other freshwater snails, Mystery Snails are characteristically more active and playful and can often be found scaling aquarium walls, extending their antennae in search of food, and climbing up the aquarium pump to the water line to breathe in oxygen. Because of this, ensure the water line in your aquarium is low enough or keep a tank lid in place so your snail cannot escape. We often ship smaller sized (.25 to 1.5 inches) snails so you can enjoy them longer and watch them grow. A young Mystery Snail can double in size over the course of two weeks to months. NOTE: Contrary to what some websites state, Mystery Snails are NOT the same species as Apple Snails. Apple Snails are an illegal species to own in the United States. Our Mystery Snails do not grow to the tremendous size that Apple Snails do (often as big as an apple).CARE GUIDELINES:- Temperature: 68° - 84° F (20° - 29° C) - pH: 7.6 - 8.4 - KH: 2 - 15 dKH - Minimum tank size: 2.5 gallons per snail - Average adult size: 2.5 - 3+ inches (5 - 7.6+ cm) - Average purchase size: .25 - 1.5 inches (1.3 - 5 cm) - Aquatic Arts is an American aquarium company! Review: Great careful shipping, arrived very quickly, healthy little Snail! - My little Ivory Mystery snail arrived 3 days sooner than the original estimate! They were shipped within hours of my order. Lightning fast! I really appreciate that since I've never ordered anything alive (besides plants) and was nervous. The snail came in the best recommended transport method for Mystery snails. In a fish bag wrapped loosely in a wet paper towel. Seller TheFrogHouseShop carefully wrapped the snails bag in brown paper in a solid box that was labeled for Temp sensitivity. All very responsible, and much appreciated. I just got my little juvenile snail acclimated! It's best to ship them as juvenile since they have a much easier time with it. They are perfect size, not too small and not too big. It will be really fun to watch my new friend grow! They arrived whole, and without any shell damage due to the responsible packing. They are alive, and already in my tank next to a mossball. It takes a bit for them to come out of their shell, and I'm so excited to see them acclimate to my tank! Big thanks to Aaryn at The Frog House Shop! Will absolutely be ordering from you again. Really appreciate the well handled shipping! I'll post some pictures once the snail acclimates! Review: Snow White - Very cute juvenile snail. As close to Snow White as you can get. I like that this seller only sends you the one you ordered. Others send extra in case one dies but I didn’t want extra to overstock my tank. Very good little snail. I’m happy :) ## Features - One of the largest plant-safe freshwater snails, White mystery snails feature lively personalities and make great Aquarium pets!

Very good little snail. I’m happy :) ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Would recommend *by A***R on January 16, 2026* Upon receiving shipment, I was blessed with 4 snails in the package instead of the advertised 3. I think 1 was dead but the added made up for it. The rest are alive and well. Can't really complain about anything and would recommend to everyone.
