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.

Look great in the tank and have done a fantastic job of keeping it clean. I love to sit and watch them work. I am not sure if they ever stop.

Packaging was excellent for these snails. One didn’t make it, but the other 2 are doing well. They are a lot smaller than I expected but really happy with their appearance. It’s kinda like Easter egg hunting looking for them in the tank! If you need a lot of space covered in your tank you will need a lot more snails due to their size. They don’t stop moving and cleaning tho. They are small but mighty!
