Pack of 3 Batik Nerite Snails
The batik nerite snail has eye-catching black and gold patterns that make it a perfect choice for nano and planted aquariums. Native to Indonesia, the batik nerite snail can live for more than four years, which is longer than many other snails. While adult batik nerite snails thrive in freshwater, their babies need brackish or saltwater to grow, so they won’t breed in a regular freshwater tank.
Background and Key Benefits
Nerite snails or Neritina sp. are freshwater snails related to the mollusk family. They will clean algae from glass, substrate, and décor. They are also so popular in our hobby because they do not reproduce in freshwater. In the wild these snails return to brackish water to breed and the baby snails require brackish water for early stages of growth. Therefore, Nerite snails will not overpopulate in an aquarium.
We keep these snails on pool filtered sand and in bare bottom tanks with a Matten filters. We feed Shrimp King Algae Pops and Shrimp King Snail Stixx along with Indian Almond Leaves for natural biofilm. We also use LED lighting to provide enough natural algae growth for them to feed.
