These snails are small almost round looking snails, about the size of a pea. They are the new talk of the town, since an article was published about them in Aquarium Frontier Magazine. They burrow in the sand and eat all kinds of detritus. They are more of a scavenger then an algae eater, many people are using these snails to replace the use of hermit crabs in the reef tank. Since the name is hard to pronounce feel free to ask for sandbugs. Recommend 1 to 2 gallons with hermits, 1 to 1 without hermits.

5 cool snails! 06/17/2008 - by jonathan harris from taylorville, IL US
these are such cool snails! i have never seen such an active snail before the instant i put them in the tank they were moving around like crazy and began eating the algae i only got a few just to try them out but now i will definatly purchase more of them
5 Go BIG! - Amazing 06/08/2007 - by PB from Indianapolis, IN US
Ok. SO the little ones are cool and do their job, but if you're lucky enough to visit P.A. in person and handpick these guys, get the BIG ones. They are amazing! Not only do they have an appetite outta this world and keep the sand extremely clean, they are very very very cool to watch. Mine mostly come out at night or during the day when the tank gets fed. When they hit the glass u'll see the long streamers behind them. I love these snails. Way Cool!

Very helpful cleanup crew critters! And it's so cute when they all come up out of the sandbed at the same time-- right at feeding time.

Fantastic snails! Very fast, very active. I'm not sure I'd replace hermits entirely, but I'd definately want a bunch of these in any tank. I think mine were breeding almost as soon as they hit the water, too.
5 I could not believe how f... 06/01/2004 - by Jeffrey Sondin-Kung from San Geronimo, CA US
I could not believe how fast these little guys can go! They bury themselve in the substrate with their little snorkel poking out. When food drops, they come screaming out of the sand! Totally fun to watch and they're fantastic scavengers. I'll be getting rid of my hermits and buying more of these guys!
