{"product_id":"zebra-snail","title":"Zebra Nerite Snail","description":"\u003cp\u003eStriped Nerite Snails hail from freshwater and brackish coastal habitats across East Africa and grow to around 2–3cm in diameter. With their neatly patterned shells striped in black and gold, they are as decorative as they are useful, among the most effective algae-grazers available for the home aquarium.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecial requirements:\u003c\/strong\u003e Striped Nerite Snails are peaceful and completely safe with plants, fish, and shrimp. They are best kept in well-established tanks with a decent film of algae on the glass and décor, a tank that is too clean may not provide enough natural grazing. A secure, weighted lid is important as Nerites are notorious escape artists and will crawl out of open-topped aquariums given the chance. They will not breed in fresh water, so there is no risk of population explosions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDiet:\u003c\/strong\u003e Striped Nerite Snails are herbivores, grazing primarily on algae and biofilm.
