Check your tank ph, it is probaly low. You would have to add calcium carbonate to help stop the errosion.
But I will have to say nerites are ALOT hardier than briggs when it comes to their shells. I have an olive nerite that I saved from a lfs that they didn't know what he was b/c he looked like melted vanilla ice cream on a rock. He has huge craters in his shell and all I can say is man o man their shells are thick to begin with. He is still ticking right along though like nothing is wrong.
