Tulip Snail (Fasciolaria tulipa)
The Tulip Snail is a striking predatory snail with a beautifully patterned shell, adding both color and intrigue to your aquarium. Native to Caribbean reefs and sandy bottoms, Tulip Snails are carnivorous and will actively hunt other mollusks and meaty foods. Hardy but predatory, they are best kept in established fish-only or species-specific tanks, as they may consume smaller snails or slow-moving invertebrates. Their bold appearance and natural hunting behavior make them a captivating addition for experienced hobbyists.
