Keeping zebra nerite snails?

Question

I just ordered some zebra nerite snails online. I am also treating my tank for ich, using aquarium salt. If the snails come curing the treatment, will they tolerate the salt? Also, how do I acclimate them to my tank?

Answer 1

Nerites are brackish snails, so the salt won't cause them any trouble.  Be sure to have a tight fitting lid as they like to crawl out of the tank.
