Batik Nerite Snail (Neritina variegata)
Product Details
The Batik Nerite Snail (Neritina variegated) is a very unique nerite species that is native to Indonesia and is known for its striking, psychedelic black and gold coloration. It can live for upwards of 4 years, so it is relatively long-lived among its relatives. Though it inhabits freshwater habitats as an adult, its fry require brackish or marine water to survive, so it will not proliferate in a freshwater aquarium and it is not known to have been bred commercially or otherwise.
It should also be noted that, while this snail can live in a wide variety of pH levels, it will live for much longer in neutral to alkaline water of 7.0 or higher pH. If it is kept in acidic water, it is more prone to experience shell erosion. Calcium supplementation (especially when using R/O water) is highly recommended for maintaining the quality of this snail’s magnificent shell.
RECOMMENDED TANK PARAMETERS:
- Temperature: 72° - 79° F (22° - 26° C)
- pH: 6.5 – 7.5, although its lifespan will generally be longer in neutral to alkaline pH.
- KH: 2 - 12 dKH
- Minimum Tank Size: 5 gallons
