Horned Nerite Snail

These Horned Nerite snails are not only beautiful but they are great algae eaters. This variety will come in Black or Dark Green in color. They eat algae off of aquarium walls, plants and substrate. These snails are also peaceful creatures will not bother other tank inhabitants.  We sell our snails at around 1/2 inch in diameter. 

Nerite snails will not breed in your tank unlike other snails as brackish water is required for their eggs to hatch. Hence, they will not take over an aquarium unlike other pest snails. 

We feed them a combination of our own foods Shrimpy Party, protein party, blanched vegetables (Spinach and Zucchini) and Mulberry leaves.
