Nerites changing color patterns?

3394 Views 2 Replies 2 Participants Last post by  Clint
Most of my nerite snails have chaged color patterns in my tanks since I've bought them.
My zebra's stripes have changed directions, the green horned nerites have a marbled color to the new growth, the coronas have lost a lot of the black on their new growth and one now has a yellow/black marbled look to it on the new shell area.

What causes this? Just drastic differences in water and diet from the person I bought them from?

Yep.

Fascinating, isn't it!?
yes, especially the total change in direction of the stripes in the zebra nerite.
