Brown Zebra Nerite Snails · Neritina natalensis · algae eaters X2

Brown zebra nerites (Neritina natalensis) for sale — genuinely the best algae eaters I've kept, especially on diatoms and the soft green film that other snails seem to ignore.

Gorgeous shells, golden-brown base with dark zebra striping, every one slightly different. Currently 1.5-2cm shell, max they'll get to is around 2.5-3cm.

Peaceful, shrimp safe, completely plant safe — ideal for planted tanks and nano setups. Care is pretty basic, temp 22-28°C, pH anywhere 7-8.5, medium to hard water preferred for the shell. Tight lid though, like most snails they'll climb out if they find a gap.
