The Black Snail Stone is a premium decorative fossil stone recognised by its deep black base and contrasting white fossilised snail imprints. Each stone is completely unique, shaped naturally over thousands of years, and showcases intricate patterns that enhance visual interest in any aquatic or terrarium environment.

This stone is inert, meaning it will not affect water chemistry, making it safe for freshwater fish, shrimp, and live plants. Its textured surface provides natural sheltering areas for small aquatic life, encouraging natural behaviour such as grazing, hiding, and exploring.
