Name That Shell Color

[karneval]

Okay, I officially fail at this. I got my first apple snail today. It was one of the few at the LFS climbing all over the tank, being very active, and I was in love with it before I even got home. My only problem is that I can not figure out what color its shell is! I am just really bad at this; I can barely match my own clothes, how am I supposed to do this snail stuff?

Uhm, okay, anyway. There's algae on the shell, which is making it harder for me, since it could be making the shell look different. I'll just let you experts handle this

Thanks

He is whats commonly known as a blue, with a dark body and blue shell with no stripes.
This is an excellent site for identifying colour types for your snails, but be aware that retailers often dont have a clue what colour it is and will give it some non-descripive name like a "stripy" snail or something similar.
