The Pagoda Snail is a pretty aquarium snail that originally comes from Thailand. It grows to about 5 cm and can be kept in aquariums from 60 cm in length. Algae are on the menu for this snail - if there are not enough algae in the aquarium, the snail must be fed. In order for it to be able to search for food in the substrate, sand or fine gravel should be used and the water should not be too soft for a strong housing.
