General notes
: The Zebra Turbo Snail is an excellent choice for hair algae removal from the aquarium. Comes from warmer waters around Belize, as a result it does better in warm aquariums that Mexican Turbo snails. Caution should be maintained as this species grows due to it`s ability to become quite large and bulldoze corals and rockwork. Not a good choice for tanks smaller than 60 gallons. Calcium levels will need to be maintained between 350 - 450 to assist this animal in continual growth and health. The fleshy mantle of this animal deposits calcium based construction material continually. If algae becomes sparse, supplementation will be required. Feed dried seaweed wrapped around a rock and placed on substrate against the glass. Most Invertebrates, including snails require very long and slow drip acclimation process of at least 2 hours as they cannot adjust quickly to even small changes in pH, temperature, alkalinity and other parameters. Like all snails, this species is intolerant of extreme nitrate levels (over 20) and cannot live in tanks that have had copper-based medications dispensed.
Water parameters
: Keep water quality high (SG 1.023 - 1.025, pH 8.1 - 8.4, Temp. 72 - 78° F).
Origin
: The Zebra Turbo Snail is commonly collected from Belize.
