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.

Snails are tiny and I’m unable to tell if they arrived all be yet. They arrived in wet material in plastic bag. Looking forward to watching them grow. No concerns.

Snails are still small but they were all alive upon arrival. They are doing a great job cleaning brown algea off my decorations in the tank. Would definitely purchase again.

Nice color as described, snails still moist in paper towel but one snail expelled with "door open" quite dead. Paper towel sealed in plastic bag but bag expanded, firm and warm to touch as was paper towel. Box slightly smashed with little packing or insulation. A little disappointed that knowing I live in Hawaii, snails were shipped "ups ground" on 10/10 and arrived yesterday 10/29. Im glad two are alive.
