Assassin Snails (Clea helena) are one of the most useful animals
in the aquarium hobby.
They will obliterate unwanted pest snails and eliminate the need to use harsh, snail-killing chemicals in your aquarium. They are particularly adept at handling populations of pond snails, Malaysian trumpet snails, ramshorn snails, bladder snails, and more!
Social Behavior: Attacks other snails, but otherwise peaceful.

As an added bonus, Assassin Snails are rather attractive in appearance. Due to their yellow and black/dark brown striping, they look fantastic on both light and dark-colored substrates. Their shells are spiral-shaped and taper down to a point at the end. Their bodies are an iridescent, almost translucent white color and consist of a long Proboscis (a sucking mouthpart, similar to a nose) that they use to drag themselves around, as well as two eyes underneath two tentacles.
