TheseΒ King KoopaΒ Nerite Snails (Neritina Juttingae) have shortΒ distinct horns on their shell and are great Algae eaters. They also go by Fruit Nerite Snails and are an uncommon Nerite species in the hobby. They eat algae on aquarium walls, plants and substrate. These snails are also peaceful creatures and will not bother other tank inhabitants. We sell our snails at around 1/2 inch to 3/4 inch in diameter.Β
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 overΒ an aquarium unlike other pest snails.Β
We feed them a combination of our own foods Shrimpy Party, protein party, blanched vegetables (Spinach and Zucchini) and Mulberry leaves.Β
Recommended Tank Parameters:
Temperature: 68F - 84F
PH: 7.4-8.4
KH: 3-14

Ordered 3 of these guys and 2 plecos. Everyone arrived securely packaged and easily transitioned into the three tanks we shared them across.
All 3 snails have been super active and are already having an impact on the tank health & cleanliness. Actually thinking about ordering another round!
Safe delivery and a happy snail
This snail π is Awesome. Love It ππΌπ
It is the size of a dime but really cute. The little Koopa has been following my other nerite around the tank. Shipping was great.
Arrived alive and doing great in my tank
