The
Astraea Turbo Snail is an excellent algae eater for the marine
aquarium. It's not a fast moving snail but it does a good job of
consuming diatoms and other film algae from the sides of tanks as
well as live rock. The Astraea Turbo
Snail is not known to be a climber like other smaller-shelled snail
species. Care needs to be taken to observe the daily activities of
this hungry snail since it has difficulty righting itself if it
falls or is knocked upside down.The approx size is between 1/2" to
3/4". These
snails are sold in lots of 10.
