About the species
The Military Helmet Snail is a durable and efficient algae eater that fits perfectly in both shrimp aquariums and pet aquariums. It is characterized by its dark, almost anthracite-colored shell with clear raised lines that give it a robust and unique appearance.
This peaceful shell works great with shrimp, peaceful fish, crabs and other shells. The Military Helmet Conch helps keep the aquarium clean by grazing algae and biofilm from glass, furnishings and stones.
The species cannot reproduce in fresh water, which means you avoid unwanted overpopulation in the aquarium.
Military Helmet Snail is also called Steel Helmet Snail or Red-lipped Helmet Snail.
