Planorbis Rubrum var. "Brown"
Ramshorn snails are an easy to care for snail that is often used as clean up crews for aquariums. They have a distinct coiled shell that resembles a ram's horn, hence their name.
These snails breed prolifically when food is in excess and require hard water with sufficient calcium for good shell condition. Ramshorn snails make a good "canary in a coal mine" for overfeeding and calcium deficiency in the aquarium.
The snails you will receive range from 10 -25mm in diameter.
