Zebra Nerite Snails have dual benefits; they add a burst of color to your aquarium decor and naturally clear your home or desk aquarium! These prime aquarium snails are known as the best eating snails in the aquarium hobby. They also feature gorgeous coloration and patterns, making them both striking and useful aquarium decorations. Most Zebra Nerite Snails have shells with gold and black zebra-like stripes. These colorful snails will consume uneaten fish food and biofilm, plus they wipe off glass or acrylic aquarium walls, real or fake aquarium plants, aquarium driftwood, and decorations. These snails are peaceful and safe to keep with any nonaggressive fish, dwarf or large shrimp, and plants (such as hornwort, Amazon sword plant, etc.). They look particularly great with jungle aquarium decor or in a moss aquarium! Nerite Snail is sometimes misspelled as Narite Snail. Zebra Nerites range from 1/2 to 1 inch in diameter, and while most remain around 1 inch throughout their lifespan, the occasional snail will reach 1.5 inches. Their small size makes them perfect for a small aquarium atop a desk or aquarium stand. They are perfectly suitable for planted aquariums (such as a Marimo aquarium). Some Nerite Snails are finicky about eating dry fish pellets, but typically enjoy spirulina, tablets, and other foods with plenty of plant content.
