Batik Nerite Snail

Batik Nerite Snail:

Batik Nerite Snails are beautifully patterned freshwater snails known for their intricate, maze-like shell designs that resemble traditional batik artwork. Each snail features a unique combination of lines, swirls, and earthy tones, making them both a functional and decorative addition to any aquarium.

Highly valued for their algae-eating abilities, Batik Nerite Snails actively graze on glass, rocks, driftwood, and plant surfaces, helping to keep tanks clean and balanced. They are peaceful, hardy, and safe for planted aquariums, as they do not eat healthy plants.
