Special Requirements - Filopaludina martensi can do well in a wide range of aquarium water conditions, but its a good idea to stay within the tropical community fish tank range with clear, moderately moving, oxygen rich water.

Tanks Mates and Compatibility – Filopaludina martensi is calm, peaceful and non-aggressive snail by nature. It has no means to attack its tank mates and has only its shell and operculum to defend itself from predators. 

Feeding –  Filopaludina martensi is a proficient eater when in feeding mode. These snails are good scavengers and tank cleaners, seeking uneaten food and dead plant matter. Filopaludina martensi also seems to enjoy eating soft algae growing on aquarium glass, decorations, rocks, power filter intakes and other hard surfaces. Filopaludina martensi can also enjoy feeding on edible matter that accumulates on slow growing plant leaves like Anubias. Filopaludina martensi like supplements of fish food, bottom feeder pellets and an algae wafers. They also like supplements of washed soft blanched vegetables like green zucchini squash or green leaf lettuce. Its fun to try different vegetables to see if the snail is interested.
