Cerith Snail - Black

The popular Cerith snail has a pointy black shell with white speckles. It is a terrific algae eater for the sand and lower areas of the aquarium; it grows to 1 inch. It is commonly available from Florida. It should be placed right side up on the sand after acclimation. The shape of its shell helps ensure it does not become trapped upside down like some other snails. Snails are extremely sensitive to changes in water quality.
