Common name: Nerite Snails

Neritidae, commonly known as Nerite Snails, are a family of small to medium-sized marine and freshwater snails. They are highly sought after in the reefkeeping hobby for their algae-eating habits, helping to keep aquariums clean. These snails are known for their striking patterns and colors, which add aesthetic value to tanks. They are hardy and adapt well to life in captivity, but they require stable water conditions and a supply of algae or substitute food to thrive. Nerite Snails are also known for their inability to reproduce in saltwater, which prevents overpopulation in reef tanks.
