Snails

Common pet snails include the Giant African Land Snail, which is known for its size, and the Garden Snail, often appreciated for its easy maintenance. There are also smaller varieties like the Nerite Snail, which is popular in aquariums. While different species vary in size and habitat needs, most share a slow pace and require similar conditions like a moist, temperature-controlled environment.
Before adopting a snail, consider their lifespan—some, like the Giant African, can live up to 10 years if properly cared for. Snails need regular tank maintenance to keep the environment clean and suitable. While snails are quiet and require minimal attention, they can be challenging due to specific habitat needs and susceptibility to changes in humidity and temperature. These creatures display fascinating behaviors like retracting into their shells when startled and moving with a graceful glide that many find calming.
