Stone snails are easy to raise, and their growth environment requirements are not very high. But in order to be successful, some basic conditions need to be met, such as the temperature should be maintained between 20 degrees and 28 degrees, alkaline environment, some calcium in the water, and adequate food, especially if there is some sediment containing organic matter in the water.
1. Temperature: Stone snails can adapt to the temperature of about 20 degrees, and it is best to keep the temperature between 20 degrees and 28 degrees. If the water temperature is too high or too low, it will affect their activity. If the water temperature exceeds 40 degrees, the stone snail will completely lose its activity.
2. Water quality: Stone snails like to live in an alkaline environment, so they need to keep the PH value above 7. And stone snails need to grow in water with a certain amount of calcium. If the water is low in pH or calcium, the shells are likely to be weak and brittle.
3. Food: There are many foods that stone snails can eat. Including aquatic plants such as algae in the water. It also includes some humus in the water, or microorganisms. Of course, artificial feeding can be fed some fish food, shrimp food or food residues.
4. Stones and aquatic plants: The growth environment of stone snails is generally in rivers or ponds with stones or aquatic plants at the bottom of the water. They like to attach to the roots of these stones or aquatic plants. Such an environment can be simulated during breeding.
