I have three in my tank with five adult mystery snails and a few babies, all is well so far I got them to get rid of the hitch hiker bladder snails! When the snails are gone I’ll have to move my assassins to the five gallon tank and feed them other food... cause... if they run out of the other snails I’m sure my mystery snails will start looking tasty ... can’t have that **Q: Do you ship to the state of Hawaii?** A: The state of Hawaii's prohibited shipping of live snails. **Q: The directions do not state how long to quarantine the 🐌 His tankmate is a betta, so I want to make sure he is parasite free. How long to quarantine?** A: I also put mine in right away, a week should be fine if you really want to tho :-) **Q: Can they survive in my saltwater aquarium?** A: No, not at all. These are strictly freshwater snails. Nerite snails can be acclimated to saltwater, but, mystery snails can not. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ His name is Flash, and I love him *by L***E on July 16, 2025* The media could not be loaded. I am so happy with my little mystery snail. I received it really quick and the note that was included mention that they usually send baby snails because they handle the shipping better. It was so well prepared for shipping. It also mentioned that it may take a couple days for them to come out of their shell, but my little snail started crawling around as soon as I dropped him in the tank. He’s so fun to watch and he seems super healthy so I thank you for sending me such a great little snailI have only had him for a week, but I have high hopes because it started out very wellWhy did you pick this product vs others?:This is what I wanted ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely gorgeous *by L***A on May 22, 2025* Arrived quickly and packaged like a pro. Alive and well. This will be my new go to when I need something or a tank mate ### ⭐ Seller is a waste, snail is a waste and the price is a terrible waste of money *by A***R on December 3, 2019* Terrible interaction all together.First off, it is a garbage little snail and you can pick one up at the local pet store for significantly less money. Complete and utter waste of money.Second, the seller is a garbage seller and wants pictures on arrival and a play by play of every interaction with the snail. The time and effort make the snail not worth it and then when it dies, the seller does nothing to compensate you. Wasted effort altogether to interact with them.The entire purchase and everything wasn't worth it. Just go to your local pet store and buy 5 for what this piece of garbage is selling them for. You'll also have a return policy with a real, reputable store, unlike this waste of life seller.If you have to buy online, buy from a real place that does this for a living. Someone that specializes in snails and shrimp, and sells in a large volume that proves their worth. Always check the reviews.Won't be making this mistake ever again. ## Frequently Bought Together - Golden Mystery Snail - 1/2"-2" - Algae Eater for Aquariums - Water Spangle, Salvinia Minima, Live Aquarium/Aquatic/Freshwater/Floating/Pond Plant/Planted Tank/Aquascaping/Paludarium by Aquarium Plant Center (12 Plants, 60+ Leaves) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.it/products/46180876-golden-mystery-snail-1-2-2-algae-eater-for-aquariums](https://www.desertcart.it/products/46180876-golden-mystery-snail-1-2-2-algae-eater-for-aquariums) --- *Product available on Desertcart Italy* *Store origin: IT* *Last updated: 2026-05-10*
