Olive Nerite Snails

IMPORTANT INFO:

• Snails will come in a plastic bag with a little water and air. When you open the snails, smell the inside of the container. If there is no rancid or rotting smell the snails should all be alive. A slight smell could mean there is some that didn't make the trip.
• Place all snails in one area in your tank so you can keep track of them. Make sure the opening of their shells are facing down. They will usually start moving within a few hours but could take a few days.
• Sizes of snails will vary between 1/4"-1/2" in size.
• Please read DOA policy below.

Nerite snails are some of the best algae eaters to keep your glass, wood, rocks, and equipment free from brown and green algae that build up over time. These snails may lay eggs in your tank but the eggs cannot hatch unless they are in brackish water.
