Like other nerite snails, this Nerite Snail does NOT reproduce in freshwater and it is a great addition to any planted aquariums consuming algae and scavenging for any leftover foods or decaying plant matter. Beluga Helmet Snails tend to keep most of their foot inside of the shell but are quite active. Very peaceful towards other aquarium inhabitants including nano fish, shrimp, and other snails.

Beluga Helmet Nerites

These snails arrived in perfect wrapping and time. They were of a good size and so pretty that I immediately ordered some more. They are all busy and seemed to adjust quickly to their new environment. I’m sticking with Aquatcmotiv for my snail go to orders.
