Nerites are amazing. They can thrive in anything from FW to BW to SW.
"I will give you a talisman. Whenever you are in doubt, or when the self becomes too much with you, apply the following test. Recall the face of the poorest and the weakest man whom you may have seen, and ask yourself, if the step you contemplate is going to be of any use to him or her. Will she gain anything by it? Will it restore her to a control over her own life and destiny? In other words, will it lead to freedom for the hungry and spiritually starving millions? Then you will find your doubts and your self melt away."

If they are going into a Puffer tank try to find the largest ones you can so they don't look like lunch. Most are sold as FW so you should acclimate them before adding to BW.

Nope, I'm not keeping them with puffers. Too pretty! They're in with my new GF.
