斑马螺 / 苹果螺 (除藻螺)养护指南
Vittina natalensis (syn. Neritina natalensis) / Planorbarius corneus · Neritidae (nerite) / Planorbidae (ramshorn)
斑马螺 / 苹果螺 (除藻螺) (Vittina natalensis (syn. Neritina natalensis) / Planorbarius corneus) 是一种水族生物。 隶属于Neritidae (nerite) / Planorbidae (ramshorn)科。 原产于Zebra nerite: the East African coast (Somalia to South Africa); great ramshorn: Europe east to Siberia and the Middle East。 生长需要任意光照光照。 适宜水温：18°C – 26°C (nerite 22–26°C; the ramshorn is temperate and needs no heater)。 pH范围：7.0 – 8.2 (acidic water corrodes shells)。 养护难度：极易。 生长速度：great ramshorns can live up to ~6 years in captivity。

如何修剪与繁殖斑马螺 / 苹果螺 (除藻螺)？
Nerites lay eggs in freshwater but the larvae need brackish or salt water, so they do not multiply in the tank. Ramshorns are hermaphrodites that lay masses of 12–60 eggs on plants and breed freely — feed sparingly and remove egg masses.
斑马螺 / 苹果螺 (除藻螺)有哪些常见问题？
Thin, pitted or eroding shells in soft, calcium-poor water; snails die after a copper-based fish treatment (snails are among the most copper-sensitive animals tested); ramshorn population booms from overfeeding.
如何解决斑马螺 / 苹果螺 (除藻螺)的常见问题？
Add a calcium source (cuttlebone, crushed coral) and keep pH neutral to alkaline; never dose copper in tanks with snails; feed less and remove egg masses.
