🐌 Zebra Nerite Snail (Neritina natalensis)
Algae Control • Glass & Rock Grazer • Non-Breeding in Freshwater
 
📋 The Zebra Nerite Snail is one of the most striking freshwater snails, instantly recognized by its bold black and gold striped shell. Small but eye-catching, it reaches only 2.5 – 3 cm, making it ideal for nano and community aquariums.
Renowned as an outstanding algae eater, it grazes on glass, plants, wood, and décor, helping maintain spotless aquariums. Unlike pest snails, the Zebra Nerite cannot breed in freshwater, so there is no risk of unwanted overpopulation.
Highly peaceful and hardy, Zebra Nerite Snails are perfect for planted tanks, shrimp aquariums, and community setups. Their decorative shell pattern and algae-cleaning function make them one of the best utility invertebrates in the aquarium hobby.
