Zebra nerite snails (Neritina natalensis sp. "Zebra") are algae eating snails with a beautiful golden shell accented by black stripes. These snails require brackish water in order to breed successfully and therefore there is no danger that they will overrun your tank like pest snails.
The snails are sensitive to ammonia and should not be kept in tanks with a high bioload.
