Description

Striped Wizard Snail (Filopaludina sp.)
Overview

The Striped Wizard Snail is an attractive freshwater snail known for its tall, spiraled shell adorned with distinct vertical striping. Peaceful, hardy, and excellent for algae control, it makes a functional and decorative addition to community aquariums.

Origin

Likely native to Southeast Asia, commonly found in slow-moving rivers, ponds, and marshes with soft substrates and abundant plant life.

Feeding

Primarily herbivorous. Consumes soft algae, biofilm, and decaying plant matter. Supplement with algae wafers, blanched vegetables (zucchini, spinach), and sinking pellets when natural foods are limited.

Tank Mates

Very peaceful. Ideal for community tanks with small fish, shrimp, and other non-predatory species. Avoid loaches, large cichlids, pufferfish, and other snail-eating species.

Aggression

None. Completely peaceful; does not harm plants or tank mates.

Experience Level

Beginner-friendly. Easy to care for and adaptable to a wide range of freshwater aquarium conditions.

Water Parameters
  • Temperature: 72°F – 82°F (22°C – 28°C)
  • pH: 7.0 – 8.2 (prefers alkaline to maintain shell health)
  • Hardness: 6 – 20 dGH
  • Notes: Provide calcium-rich water to prevent shell erosion; gentle flow and soft substrate recommended.

A strikingly patterned and low-maintenance addition, the Striped Wizard Snail (Filopaludina sp.) is perfect for aquarists seeking both beauty and effective algae management in freshwater aquariums.
