Known for its vibrant pink or magenta-hued shell, this snail species is a popular choice among aquarists for its captivating appearance and its beneficial role in tank maintenance.

These snails are indigenous to this region, commonly inhabiting freshwater environments, particularly in rivers, streams, and shallow waters with rocky substrates.
