Default Nassarius Ilyanassa Obsoleta snail SNAILS ARE IN

SNAILS have arrived!!!
Snails have arrived and will be delivered next week, as I want to acclimate them and check to make sure survival percentage is good
I will send Pm to those that ordered and if you can reply with your address and contact number, I will organize drop off.
Again the prices are as follows.

25 for $22.50
50 for $40.00
100 for $70.00
You will always be given extra.

Pm me and I will make alist on first come basis.
Snails will be ready for pick up by Feb 12.
Last year I delivered all orders in 1 day, this may happen again.

The Nassarius Ilyanassa Obsoleta snail is a small scavenger with an oval spiral shell that resembles an olive pit, with a long tube like siphon that protrudes from the end of the shell. One of the most ideal scavengers and detritus eaters these snails are perfect for the reef aquarium, quickly consuming detritus, uneaten food, decaying organics, and fish waste. These snails are excellent and safe for all types of marine and reef aquariums. They don't consume any form of hair algae but they will help keep it at bay by consuming the detritus on which it feeds.. They eat slime algae - red carpet algae you find in your tanks from high nutrient content and inefficient skimming. These are much more active and tend to do a much more efficient job of keeping the glass clean as well.Nassarius Snails like to bury themselves in the sand, which will help maintain adequate oxygen levels in the substrate.

The Nassarius Snail prefers an established aquarium. These snails are sensitive to high nitrate levels and copper-based medications.

Also interested in trades.

They are a burrowing snail, So not really suited to a BB
