As adults, the brown-green spiral shell can reach about 2 inches long and 1.5 inches wide, with a protective trapdoor. Most are captive-bred or farm-raised. They are hardy, slow, very peaceful and live up to 5 years. You get 5 snails. Some shells may show small flaws.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCare\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTemp: 50–82°F · pH: 7.4–8.0 · GH: 6–8 · KH: 2–12 · Tank: 10 gallons or more\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy Shrimp Keepers Like It\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThey graze algae and clean up algae wafers, invertebrate pellets, zucchini and dead plant matter, so less food is left to rot. They are very peaceful and very easy to keep. Once grown they get heavy, so keep them out of tanks full of thin-stemmed plants they could pull loose or snap. Never use copper.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTank Mates\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGood with: shrimp, other snails and peaceful fish. They also do well in ponds. Avoid: assassin snails, which hunt other snails, and fish big enough to eat them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003csmall\u003ePhotos © AquaticMotiv, used with credit.\u003c\/small\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003csmall\u003eInformation sourced from \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/aquaticmotiv.com\/products\/5-baby-american-trapdoor-snails\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eAquaticMotiv\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/small\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AquaticMotiv","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68360662417629,"sku":"AQM5BADEF1-2","price":11.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0856\/5302\/9085\/files\/5-baby-american-trapdoor-snails-snail-303.webp?v=1793379797","url":"https:\/\/www.mossandmolt.com\/products\/5-baby-american-trapdoor-snails","provider":"Moss\u0026Molt","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
