  • Where do Nerites Live?

    I had some extra time today at work to go visit the Anahuac National Wildlife Refuge and went to the bay docks thinking I might find some Nerites (certain species are supposed to be native to the area). All I could find were tiny baby shrimp, small crabs, oysters, and barnacles.

    I've got access to all kinds of marshland...where do I find Nerites?! (And if I do find them, how do you acclimate them? )

      Would they be present in the salt marshes and tide pools near Quintanna Beach in Freeport? Would they be in the sediment or among debris?

        What i have gathered from Seth was he collected the nerites directly off the marsh reeds and grasses.
