The BEAST from the EAST as I like to call it. The Mexican Turbo Snail is a favorite part of any cleanup crew. Turbos are large algae grazing snails that are perfect for a reef tank with a lot of algae. They can grow upwards of 4 inches although in home aquaria you usually don’t see them larger then 2 inches. They also help keep your rocks & glass clean. They love to hide in holes in rocks.
Their name comes from the turban shaped shell they carry around. They can also be found in the gulf of California.
In aquariums they will eat plenty of different types of undesirable algaes. Hair algae, cynao, green slime.
