ASSASSIN SNAIL

Bring a natural and effective solution to your snail pest problems with the Assassin Snail (Anentome helena). This small, fascinating snail is a true problem-solver, known for its unique conical shell with a striking black and yellow spiral pattern. Unlike other snails that can quickly overpopulate a tank, the Assassin Snail's primary purpose is to hunt and consume them, providing a completely natural form of pest control.

The Assassin Snail is a peaceful and beneficial addition to any community aquarium. It will not harm fish, shrimp, or plants, making it an ideal cleanup crew member. It is a slow, methodical hunter, and its presence helps to keep the population of nuisance snails like ramshorn or pond snails in check, restoring balance and aesthetics to your tank.

Diet

For their diet, Assassin Snails are carnivorous and will primarily feed on other snails in your aquarium. They will hunt and consume snails that are smaller than them, helping to control unwanted population explosions. If your tank has a low snail population, you should supplement their diet with leftover fish food, sinking pellets, or small pieces of meaty foods to ensure they receive all the necessary nutrients.
