Rabbit Snails

Description
Rabbit Snails are unique freshwater snails known for their long, spiral shells and “rabbit-like” faces with extended antennae. Native to Sulawesi, Indonesia, they come in a variety of colors, commonly featuring dark shells with bright yellow, orange, or even spotted bodies. These snails are slow-moving, peaceful, and add a distinctive, almost prehistoric look to aquariums. Unlike many pest snails, Rabbit Snails reproduce slowly, making them easy to manage in display tanks.
