The Ramshorn Snail is a common and adaptable freshwater snail with a flat, coiled shell shaped like a ram’s horn. It is an efficient scavenger that feeds on algae and leftover food, often multiplying quickly in nutrient-rich tanks. Completely peaceful and harmless to fish and plants (unless food is scarce), it varies from 0.5–1 inch (1–2.5 cm).
