5-Pack Large Nassarius Snails (Nassarius vibex)

Keep your sand bed clean and healthy with this 5-Pack of Large Nassarius Snails, one of the best scavengers available for saltwater aquariums. Unlike algae-eating snails, Nassarius Snails spend most of their time buried beneath the sand, emerging quickly when they detect food. Their constant burrowing helps aerate the substrate while consuming leftover food and organic waste before it can negatively impact water quality.

These active scavengers are an essential addition to any reef or fish-only saltwater aquarium and work alongside algae grazers to create a complete cleanup crew.
