I use this on my Sony camera https://www.sony.co.uk/electronics/came ... s/sel30m35

You don’t need expansive kit though, try using one of those clip on macro lenses for your camera phone.

Which one would you recommend? There are so many types of zebra nerites. Difficult to get the ones who live in brackish water or seawater here in Austria.

Large zebra nerites... all mine are from fresh water tanks and I introduce them to my brackish tanks and they do fine.

Oh all right then! Has anyone tried Neritina pulligera? http://www.aquascapinglab.com/en/2017/07/12/neritina/
She's a brackish snail too.

Bought two Neritina pulligera today. And there was even a baby snail in there. Can't tell what kind of snail it is. It's too small :dead:
