The Sky Collection
Brilliant clarity and the porcelain beauty of our pure ivory base.
Mastering the Cool Spectrum
The Sky Collection is dedicated to brightness and light. This line features our signature Sky Blue specimens—a delicate, light-foot variety that reflects the clarity of a summer morning—alongside our pure white Ivories. Each snail is hand-selected for its brilliant, porcelain-like shell and impeccable health, ensuring a serene and sophisticated addition to any high-end aquarium.


The collection breakdown
Sky Blue Mystery Snails: An Australian-first genetic line. These specimens feature a luminous, light-blue shell paired with a perfectly matching light-blue foot, creating a seamless, ethereal "Sky" aesthetic
Pure White Ivories: The gold standard of the line, these specimens offer a stark, brilliant white finish that remains smooth and pit-free.
Care Standards & Parameters
pH Range (7.6 – 8.0): We recommend maintaining this alkaline range to protect the porcelain finish from acidic erosion. Rapidly adjusting pH can stress aquatic life; always monitor stability over several days when making changes.
GH Baseline (8 – 15): A stable General Hardness (GH) provides the mineral foundation necessary for healthy physiological function. Establishing this baseline is a prerequisite before fine-tuning specific calcium concentrations.
Calcium Levels (100 – 150 ppm): For elite shell development, we target these concentrations. Community Tank Note: Always verify the specific tolerance levels of other tank inhabitants, as some species may require lower mineral concentrations than these specialized snails.
Nutritional Balance: While water parameters protect the shell's exterior, snails must ingest calcium to fuel internal growth. We recommend a varied diet rich in protein and calcium-heavy supplements to prevent thin or brittle shell development.
Acclimation & Stability: Our stock is raised in stable Australian aquarium conditions . To ensure a safe transition, all specimens must be slowly drip-acclimatized to your specific water parameters. Shell & Fin Aquatics is not responsible for losses due to improper acclimation or incompatible home water chemistry.
*Shipping Note: We ship livestock to VIC, NSW, QLD, SA, and ACT only. Due to biosecurity laws, we cannot ship live snails to WA, NT, or TAS.
