Zebra Nerite Snail

Same brackish-water breeding quirk as every other nerite — it lays eggs in freshwater that simply never hatch, so you get algae control without a population explosion. The zebra pattern is the classic nerite look: bold black stripes over a yellow-green shell, and one of the toughest algae eaters you can put in a planted tank.
