Ampulyarii – quite large aquarium snails. Their shell has the form of a spiral cone bright Golden-yellow or yellow-brown color. They breathe oxygen and so from time to time float to the surface. Snails feed on all kinds of residues and fouling, but if necessary they can be fed lettuce or cabbage, scalded with boiling water.
