The killer snail has a strong survival ability and is a relatively easy snail to raise. But it is more ferocious, like to eat meat and fishy, so there are some points to pay attention to when raising it.
First of all, the most important thing to pay attention to when raising killer snails is not to raise them together with other snails, especially ornamental snails and some small miscellaneous snails, as well as some small fish and shrimp seedlings, because killer snails will eat them.
Secondly, some basic conditions need to be controlled. Including temperature, pH, hardness and food.
1. Temperature: The temperature for raising killer snails needs to be controlled between 20 and 28 degrees, which is high, and their activity is very low at low temperature.
2. PH: The killer snail needs to be kept in an alkaline environment like other snails, because the snail is easily corroded by the acidic environment, and the pattern is damaged or killed.
3. Hardness: In order to ensure that the shell of the killer snail is hard and healthy, it is best to use hard water rich in calcium to control the hardness between 8 and 15 degrees.
4. Food: Killer snails do not have high requirements for food, but they especially prefer meat and fish. For example, all kinds of snails and fish and shrimp carcasses or fish and shrimp food, as well as aquatic algae and cooked vegetables.
