Snail Shop is a family run business and was founded in 2002. Our ethos is to provide quality invertebrates at affordable prices. We source captive bred stock (where possible) and 80% of our livestock is captive bred onsite. We have a vigorous health screening proceedure in place which ensures our customers only receive the healthiest livestock.
The health and wellbeing of our livestock is of paramount importance.
About Louisa (founder of Snail Shop)
"I started fishkeeping, as most people do, with a humble goldfish aquarium aged 8. Throughout my teens, my bedroom was fit to burst with aquariums - so much so that my parents believed that the floor was going to collapse! I have kept a huge variety of fish and other aquatic inverts since; coldwater, freshwater, brackish, marine and koi. My passion for all things aquatic led me to do a Degree at Sparsholt College in Hampshire in Aquaculture & Fisheries Management. Shortly after I finished the course I founded Snail Shop. Since then I have become fascinated with freshwater inverts. I strongly believe in good welfare and husbandry for the animals in my care. I also never send out any order that I would not be happy to receive. Snail Shop was founded by hobbyists for hobbyists."
"Thank you for your interest - I hope that Snail Shop can help you discover the fascinating world of freshwater inverts."
Best Wishes and Happy Snailing!
