Cerith snail

These hardy snails are great for eating algae and are popular for eating detritous in the aquarium.  They will really help keep the sandbed and aquarium clean. This variety of cerith snail is native to the Caribbean. We recommend up to 1-2 of these snails per gallon in the aquairum to give you a general stocking idea.

This species is nocturnal and most active at night. During the day they will often find a spot and not move a lot so do not be alarmed if they do not come out right away when you first get them into your aquarium.

Reef Safe: These snails are peaceful invertebrates and considered reef safe meaning they are not known for harming other inverts, corals or fish in the aquarium.  

For our seahorse customers these are safe to keep with larger seahorse species such as H. erectus as well as Dwarf seahorses, H. zosterae.
