5 Orange Poso Sulawesi Rabbit Snails Tylomelania Live Freshwater Snail

The snails all arrived alive and well. The order was for 5 snails but I received an extra for a total of 6. They were all very active once I un-bagged them and acclimated them. Once I placed them in their tank they were all moving about with the exception of one who seems to be either unhappy from his travel to me or lazy. They then all started eating and going about their snail business exploring their new home. The following morning when I went to check on them to my delightful surprise I had a new baby snail! It’s even more adorable than the adults due to its miniature size. I am very please with my purchase and would purchase again.

Snails arrived alive and healthy, even with shipping delayed by a day. Their shells were certainly heavily eroded at the tip though, so don’t expect perfect black shells. Their bodies, however, are a vibrant yellow-orange! I honestly have no idea how these things survive in the wild with how clumsy and awkward they are. They’re constantly falling and flipping over. They have to extend almost all the way out of their shell, grab some substrate, and then drag their shell up to their tiny foot. Be aware that these guys will readily munch on all but your toughest plants if hungry.

Got them today. Came quicker than Amazon says, fast delivery is included in the price. The packaging comes well enough but the fluff inside can get messy it's the recycled paper fluff. Snails are instantly moving and doing their thing. Smaller than I expected but not too small, roughly 1 inch long, as long as you don't have large fish should be fine. Keep in mind how far you live from distributor and temperature during delivery, mine took 4 days and I was worried but came live and well.

The seller can only be responsible for 2 of the 5 based on their policy, but they ignored my message. I sent the timestamped photo within the delivery window as required, and agreed to give them a couple days before calling it and requesting a solution. A few days later it became clear that 2 had passed but that message went ignored. Over the next week or so the other 3 passed. I didn’t follow up with the seller again for these 3 snails but this purchase ended up being a complete waste of money.

The rabbit snails arrived early and they are so cute. However there is some damage done to their shells. I guess it happened during shipping because the box was upside down when delivered and leaking water, do they had a rough transport. I am very pleased with my snails and they are each in different tanks.

All 12 rabbit snails shipped to me perished within 5 days. I'd purchased some similar snails from Aquatic Arts here on Amazon.com. though and so far, snails doing much better. All 4 arrived alive and appear to be adjusting to their new home. What they do differently than Seven Seas is, they'd provided step-by-step instructions as to how to acclimate the snails for an hour prior to adding them to a new tank. They recommend adding 30 mls of tank water to container snails arrived in every 3-5 minutes for up to an hour to properly acclimate the snails. I'd like to strongly recommend Seven Seas adopt this practice also (informing customers with an info pamphlet enclosed in shipping box), to prevent the further deaths of these dependent snails, trying to adjust to their new homes. I'd asked Seven Seas to start doing this, too.

When the critters arrived the heat pad they were shipped with was used up cold. Hopeful, i still acclimated the snails accordingly but were all unfortunately dead. Because i waited so long hoping they would move or were still alive i voided the live arrival garuntee. Truly unfortunate.

I was so pumped to get these snails. I did all of the research, got all of the things. My toddlers and I love to watch them… the only problem, is 2/5 are dead within a week. Their shells didn’t come in the best/healthy conditions. Everyday I’m so scared to look at them because I’m afraid another will be dead 😭. When contacting the company, they only replace them if they are DOA. Nothing sadder than having to smell their rotting corpse to be able to tell if they are dead or not , eeeek. To be fair , the three that are still alive (as of now) are seeming to be pretty active and they are cute. They better live because my heart can’t handle anymore losses (being dramatic , but I really would like them better alive).
