(Nassarius distortus)
Size: 1/2" - 1"
Origin: Florida/ Carribean
Family: Nassarius distortus
Note: These are excellent detritivores and scanagers. They are the choice for keeping
your sand bed looking healthy and clean. Unlike the Florida Variety, these Nassarius
snails have a good survivability. We even keep them in Bare Bottom tanks with no sand.
They will come running out when you feed the tank. There proboscis allows them to
smell and seek out uneaten food in your aquarium.
