Nerite snails during cycle...

[Rocky998]

Can nerite snails such as horned, tiger, and zebra snails live in aquariums during an aquarium cycle using ammonia? Just to have some sort of life in there...

No, the ammonia will kill nerites. Apart from pest snails, which will survive anything, ammonia in the water at the level used for fishless cycling kills most aquatic life.

Oh ok. Well, kinda figured. Thanks.
