No two look exactly the same. Some have thin stripes, while others have speckles or other cool markings. They usually stay under about an inch, which makes them a great cleanup crew for both nano tanks and larger community aquariums. Like most nerite snails, they love grazing on algae and will spend their time cleaning glass, rocks, and decorations around the tank. Plus, their bright colored shells add a fun pop of color to any setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMore about Nerites\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNerite snails are one of the most popular freshwater snails in the aquarium hobby, and for good reason. They are fantastic algae eaters and will happily clean algae from glass, substrate, rocks, and decorations around the tank. One of the biggest reasons hobbyists love them is that they won’t overpopulate your aquarium. While they may lay eggs, nerite snails require brackish water for those eggs to hatch and for the babies to develop. Since most aquariums are freshwater, the eggs won’t hatch, and you won’t end up with a tank full of snails.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBesides being incredibly useful, they’re also really fun to watch. Nerites have beautiful patterned shells!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHere at Flip, we keep our nerite snails on pool filter sand and in bare bottom tanks with Matten filters. We also use LED lighting to encourage natural algae growth so they always have a steady food source while they’re with us. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003ePlease note: During shipping, snails sometimes go into a hibernation-like state and may not become fully active for up to a week once acclimated to your aquarium.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTank Parameters\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003epH:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7.2 to 8.5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGH:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7 to 15\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKH:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2 to 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTDS:\u003c\/strong\u003e 120 to 400\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemp:\u003c\/strong\u003e 68 to 78\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Snail","offers":[{"title":"3 Pack","offer_id":45001068970086,"sku":"SNAIL-N ASSORTED PUMPKIN 3","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2046\/4839\/files\/ShopifyTemplates.png?v=1773147006","url":"https:\/\/flipaquatics.com\/products\/assorted-pumpkin-nerite-snails","provider":"Flip Aquatics ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
