Sometimes called a horned zebra Nerite, Clithon corona/diadema, are superb algae eaters. They'll attack spot algae, hair algae, and the dreaded Black Beard Algae.

Native to the Indo-pacific region (like most nerites), these are among the most distinctive- looking!

They can grow up to .5", but ours will be younger, and pea-sized at .25"

Cassandra's notes:

Useful and attractive!

Broadly considered the gold standard in algae management, Nerites work tirelessly to keep your glass and decor spot-free!

These little guys play such an important role in a balanced aquarium! They are nature's recyclers, and work tirelessly to scrub detritus, algae and fish poo from your tank.

Peaceful and easy- going, these snails do not eat live plants, but you may see them resting on green foliage in order to scrub away any algae or biofilms on the surface. 

These guys are undemanding, but would prefer a planted, community tank within normal parameters. They do like a bit of cuttlebone here and there to keep their shells hard and clear.

These snails do not reproduce in a freshwater aquarium. They will try by leaving tiny little "pearls" on the glass and decorations. These eggs will never hatch, however, and will slowly dissolve over time.

If you do not see any visible algae anywhere in your aquarium, it would be pertinent to place a blanched piece of vegetable on the substrate every few days. Be sure to remove within the day, as you won't want to foul up your water! They will also happily accept little algae wafers (the kind advertised for bottom feeders such as Plecos)

Under 40F where you are? Don’t forget your HEAT PACK!

Bumblebees are the best

These tiny snails get to places the big guys can't reach and do a great job cleaning off the algae on the smaller leaved plants.

Two of three survived

I ordered three of these little fellas to help with cleanup in my new tank. I placed them in an established tank for quarantine for a few days. After a couple of hours all three were moving around. Unfortunately, within a week, one of the three died. The other two are still chugging along though. Cute little snails.

Bumblebee Snail in the Mail

Great little algae eaters. These can get to the smaller leaves of the smaller plants that the larger snails cannot climb. Had a few DOAs due to weather, but Cass and Oliver made good on my orders plus threw in some extras. Will happily order from Glass Grown again when I need more goodies! Thank you Cass and Oliver for taking good care of me:)

5 of six survived and are consuming algae on my smaller plants that the larger zebra nerites cannot get to. Happy with order. Am going to order more.

Bumblebee nerites

Unfortunately the snails arrived DOA, presumably due a cold spell during shipping. Working on reshipment. They are very cute and unique looking...sorry they died.
