Description

Naturally from Asia, these Nerite Snails are some of the hardest to find in the aquarium hobby. They are easy to breed in captivity but their eggs will only hatch in brackish water, so you don't have to worry about them breeding in your aquarium. Nerite snails are extremely hardy and live in a vast variety of water parameters. Red Pumpkin Nerite Snails have an amazing shell color which can vary - from red and pink with unique white dots/scribbles, to orange/yellowish with dark stripes. They are very good scavengers that will dig under the gravel, if needed, to get that extra algae meal.

  • Active - Nerites are at work 24/7;

All three were dead

All three of them were dead, idk what happened. I ordered them on the first and they got here on the 13th. It was probably something to do with the mailing system. I ordered plants on the first too and they came in on like the 10th. Though the plants were delivered to my door while the snails were put into the metal mailbox. That probably had something to do with it :p. Sucks

Arrived safe! Once in their new environment they immediately began venturing and munching on a green algae rock. Thank you!

Packaged very well and shipping was great. I appreciate that they waited a few days to ship so my snails wouldn't sit in a hot postal hub. Only took 2 days from New Jersey to east texas. The snails arrived very healthy. Cute little things. Thank you seller!
