    Direction

    🐌 How to Acclimate New Rabbit Snail

    🔹 📦 Unpack Carefully – Gently remove the snail from its packaging to avoid stress.

    🔹 🧼 Rinse Thoroughly – Use dechlorinated or aquarium water to remove any debris or transport residue.

    🔹 🌡️ Float to Match Temperature – Place the snail’s container in your tank for 20-30 minutes to equalize temperature.

    🔹 💧 Drip Acclimate – Slowly add small amounts of tank water to the container over 45-60 minutes for a smooth transition.

    🔹 🪨 Place in Tank Gently – Set the snail right-side up on the substrate or a stable surface.

    🔹 💡 Dim the Lights – Reduce lighting to minimize stress during acclimation.

    🔹 👀 Observe Behavior – The snail may take time to start moving; allow it to adjust naturally.

    🔹 🛡️ Check Shell Health – Inspect for cracks or damage and ensure a calcium-rich diet for a strong shell.

    🔹 🥬 Wait Before Feeding – Offer food after 24 hours to allow the snail to settle into its new environment.
