There are different species like paradoxus but I just thought they were a cool fish and a small aquarium would fit them nicely. Any info appreciated!

Might be difficult to find anyone who has personal experience or specific knowledge about them, since they aren't very commonly kept.

I have no experience with these however I'll try my best. Keep in a well planted tank with access to a cave for breeding,substrate should be sand or mud and can also contain leaves,care should be taken that they aren't outcompeted for food by other tankmates. They like small live food items and apparently aren't known to take prepared foods.

I've never heard of hairy tower snails before. Where do you get them? Do you go find them yourself?
