Wow stunning

Ordered this beauty, expected a pea sized snail, maybe even smaller, nope!

This gorgeous, maybe larger than a 10c piece. Stunningly beautiful, I ordered this with some plants Subwassertang, they came within 2 days and they were perfectly packaged.

I am extremely satisfied with my order.
