A fast moving snail that is good for larger aquariums. Mainly lives on the glass.
The Turbo snail is well known as a fast moving snail that makes quick work of algae in the aquarium. Its rounded shell usually grows to 2 or 3 inches, although some species may grow even larger. Its operculum, or trap door, is smooth, unlike its Mexican cousins who have a swirl pattern. It should be placed right side up on the sand after acclimation. It is adapted to rocky habitats; if it falls onto its back on the aquarium's sand it is not physically able to flip over and must be assisted. Snails are extremely sensitive to changes in water quality.
