Which Snail Is Right For Me Guide
This is only a rough guide to help you in choosing the right snail for yourself. It is not intended as a definitive guide, and only covers some of the more popular breeds that we have in stock. Also by easy, medium and hard snails we mean this refers to the level of care required. For example an easy snail would be the fulica that requires lower temps as opposed to a tiger snail that requires higher temps and humidity so would be a harder to care for snail. If you still have any questions about which snail would best suit you, please feel free to contact us.
