The best way to house a pet snail is in a glass, plastic aquarium, or terrarium. This will give your snail a safe place to crawl around as well as more surface area for it to climb. Aquariums and terrariums are easy to wipe down and wash when necessary, keep the bedding contained, and help hold in moisture.

Pet snails are very easy animals to look after. They have a few simple needs which must be met, but provided you are diligent meeting about them, snails really are quite straightforward. Small fish tanks or rodent tanks are both suitable for keeping pet snails in. The tank must be ventilated, so look for habitats with perforated sides or lids.
