Useful snail for controlling other snail populations
Anentome helena, commonly known as the assassin snail, is a gastropod native to Southeast Asia. It is valued for its ability to naturally control the proliferation of other snails in the aquarium. Its yellow and brown striped shell also makes it an attractive invertebrate.
A peaceful and useful species. Prefers a fine substrate so it can partially burrow. Best kept in a small group. Does not attack fish or shrimp, only small snails.
Carnivorous: feeds on small snails, leftover food and sinking wafers or pellets. Discover our foods for bottom-feeding fish and invertebrates.
