    Default Nerite Snails

    I ordered 100 nerite snails from your store last week and almost overnight I have hundreds of little white spots that appear to be eggs all over my tank. Are these snails frequent breeders? Are they going to be a nuisance with so many?

    They are unlikely to survive their larval stage in captivity after they hatch.

    As John says, they won't survive. I have them in my Discus tank too - they hatch out and then become food.
