Description
Key Characteristics
- Appearance: Named for their long, drooping antennae that resemble rabbit ears, and an elongated snout-like mouth that earns them the secondary nickname “elephant snail”.
- Colours: Body and shell colours vary widely; popular varieties include the Golden/Orange Rabbit Snail, Chocolate, Yellow-Spotted, and Black.
- Size & Lifespan: They grow up to 1.5 to 3 inches long and live for 3 to 5 years.
- Diet: Peaceful detritivores and grazers that feed on biofilm, algae, sinking pellets, and blanched vegetables without harming healthy plants or tankmates.
- Reproduction: They are dioecious (separate sexes) and ovoviviparous, meaning they give birth to single, live-shelled young rather than laying large clutches of eggs.
Aquarium Care Parameters
- Temperature: 21°C – 29°C.
- Substrate: Fine sand or smooth aquasoil (avoid sharp gravel).
- Tankmates: Peaceful community fish, dwarf shrimp, and other non-predatory tank inhabitants.
