Description

Bumble Bee Snail Tiny - Pusiostoma mendicaria Color: The Bumble Bee Snail Tiny has a black with yellow stripe color. Size: The Bumble Bee Snail Tiny may grow to 0.5 inches. Diet: Carnivore. Feeding:Carnivore. It likes to eat meaty bits. May eat Zoos and polyps. . Behavior: The Pusiostoma mendicaria is generally peaceful toward other tankmates. Care: Many consider the Pusiostoma mendicaria a low-maintenance specimen. Not venomous. Lighting: Has lighting needs. General notes: The Bumble Bee Snail is an attractive choice but is rarely seen as they are nocturnal. Like Nassarius snails, they will eat any uneaten food, and decaying matter. May eat some hair algae but not as much as many of the other snails we offer to choose from. Some hobbyists have reported them eating zooanthids and polyps. Calcium levels will need to be maintained between 350 - 450 to assist this animal in continual growth and health. The fleshy mantle of this animal deposits calcium based construction material continually. If algae becomes sparse, supplementation will be required. Feed dried seaweed wrapped around a rock and placed on substrate against the glass. Most Invertebrates, including snails require very long and slow drip acclimation process of at least 2 hours as they cannot adjust quickly to even small changes in pH, temperature, alkalinity and other parameters. Like all snails, this species is intolerant of extreme nitrate levels (over 20) and cannot live in tanks that have had copper-based medications dispensed. Water parameters: Keep water quality high (SG 1.023 - 1.025, pH 8.1 - 8.4, Temp. 72 - 78° F). Origin: The Bumble Bee Snail Tiny is commonly collected from Florida. Specifications: This item comes to you in a general size. There are no size selection guarantees on this item. Note: Due to variations among each species, livestock may not look identical to the image provided. Expect diversity since each animal is unique in color, texture and shape.
