Instructions
-
1
Prepare a freshwater tank with water. The pH levels of the water should be left at 7.0 neutral balance and heated between 72 and 77 degrees.
-
2
Apply moderate amounts of algae to the floor and sides of the tank. Nerites will use this as an exclusive food source.
-
3
Keep lighting within the tank dimmed at all times to simulate the nerite's natural dark habitat.
-
4
Add two mature nerites to the tank, one male and one female.
-
5
Wait at least a month for the snails to begin reproducing within the tank.
