Provide a fully cycled aquarium with stable water quality and sufficient calcium and minerals for healthy shell growth. Maintain water around 20–28°C with a pH of approximately 7.0–8.0 and moderate to hard water. Supplement natural algae and biofilm with dedicated snail foods and vegetables. Leave an air gap above the waterline for breathing and egg laying, and use a secure lid to prevent escapes. Avoid copper-based medications and tankmates that prey on snails. They generally leave healthy aquatic plants alone.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"KeepingFishSimple","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67748175249597,"sku":"LIVE-SNAIL-MAGENTA-MYSTERY-SNAIL-1PK","price":0.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2716\/2486\/files\/MagentaMysterySnail.png?v=1791879535","url":"https:\/\/keepingfishsimple.com\/products\/magenta-mystery-snail-pomacea-diffusa-live-fish","provider":"KeepingFishSimple","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
