Dwarf Ceriths Snails

The Dwarf Cerith Snail is a must-have for any reef tank looking for a hardworking, space-efficient cleaner. These tiny snails are excellent for tackling algae, detritus, and uneaten food in hard-to-reach areas. Their burrowing behavior helps aerate the sandbed, while their small size allows them to clean crevices and rockwork that larger snails might miss.
