Genus

Common name: Euplica Snails

Scientific name: Euplica

Euplica is a genus of small, carnivorous snails often found in reef aquariums. They are known for their beneficial role in controlling pests, such as small worms and unwanted crustaceans. Their nocturnal habits and preference for detritus and leftover food make them excellent scavengers, contributing to a cleaner tank environment. Euplica snails are generally hardy and adapt well to life in captivity, provided they have ample hiding places and a steady supply of food.
