🐌 White Hercules Snail (Brotia herculea – White Morph)
Detritus Removal • Substrate Grazer • Hardy River Snail
 
📋 The Brotia herculea is a rare and distinctive pachychilid snail prized for its elongated, ridged shell and sturdy appearance. Unlike many common aquarium snails, it has a more robust build and thrives in aquariums with strong water movement.
It is a substrate and detritus grazer, helping to break down leftover food and organic waste. While not as efficient an algae grazer as Nerite or Ramshorn snails, the Hercules Snail adds a unique decorative presence while still contributing to tank cleanliness.
Peaceful in temperament, it is compatible with shrimp, fish, and other snails. As a livebearing snail, reproduction is slow and manageable, making it unlikely to overpopulate aquariums.
