Nerite Snails (Neritina spp.) are popular freshwater snails admired for their attractive shell patterns and exceptional algae-eating abilities. Peaceful and hardy, they are among the most effective natural algae grazers, helping to keep aquarium glass, rocks, driftwood, and decorations clean without harming healthy plants. They thrive in well-maintained aquariums with stable water quality and plenty of natural surfaces to graze. Feed a varied diet including algae, algae wafers, and blanched vegetables if natural algae growth is limited. Nerite Snails will lay eggs in freshwater, but the eggs will not hatch without brackish water. Size, colour, pattern, and appearance may vary. ✓ Excellent natural algae grazer✓ Safe for planted aquariums✓ Peaceful and hardy invertebrate✓ Suitable for freshwater community aquariums
