Description

Naturally from India, these Nerite Snails are very common 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. Tiger Nerite snails are usually orange in coloration and have very noticeable black dots on the shell. They are extremely good scavengers that will dig under the gravel, if needed, to get that extra algae meal.

Taming the tank

I ordered 3 snails to put in my tank with my cranky betta. They arrived alive and in great shape. Once I acclimated them they have been roaming all over and helping keep the algae in the tank under control. They don’t seem to annoy my betta so that is a win too.

Very well packed. Lively little snails. I was worried because the box was roasting when I got it from the mailman, but all three snails were happily moving around within 20 minutes of being placed in water. They're already tackling the algae issue in my betas 20gal.
