🐌 White Wizard Snail (Filopaludina martensi – White Morph)
Freshwater Peaceful Algae & Detritus Grazer • Genuine Trapdoor Operculum • Genuinely Unique Gill Filter-Feeding Ability
 
📋 The White Wizard Snail, also known as the White Trapdoor Snail, is a genuinely striking freshwater snail with a large, spiral, ivory-white shell and a genuine hard trapdoor operculum it can seal shut for protection.
What genuinely sets this species apart from most other snails: it's capable of filter-feeding through its gills, trapping microorganisms directly from the water column in addition to its normal grazing on algae, detritus, and biofilm.
This species is a genuine livebearer, though genuinely a low-output one, producing only a small handful of young per birth rather than large clutches — a real reassurance against overpopulation. Given its genuine weight and size, we'd suggest avoiding delicate, thin-stemmed plants, which it may accidentally uproot while foraging.
