Size: The Turbo Snail Mexican may grow to 4 inches and generally come to you at 1-2 inches. Diet: Herbivore. Feeding: It likes to eat mainly Hair algae. Behavior: The Turbo fluctuosa is generally peaceful toward other tankmates. Care: Many consider the Turbo fluctuosa a low-maintenance specimen. Not venomous. Lighting: Has minimual lighting needs. General notes: The Mexican Turbo Snail is an excellent choice for hair algae removal from the aquarium. 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. Water parameters: Keep water quality high (SG 1.023 - 1.025, pH 8.1 - 8.4, Temp. 72 - 78° F). Origin: The Turbo Snail Mexican is commonly collected from Mexico. Specifications: This item comes to you in a general size, usually 1-2 inches. There are no size selection guarantees on this item. Notes: 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. Note: Due to variations among each species, livestock may not look identical to the image provided. Expect diversity since each animal is unique in color, texture and shape.
