These small snails have a distinctive pyramid-shaped shell and reach about 1 inch at full size, making them suitable for both nano tanks and large reef systems. They tirelessly forage on nuisance growths, including hairlike films, diatoms, and even problematic cyanobacteria, helping to maintain a cleaner and healthier aquarium environment. With their peaceful temperament and herbivorous diet, Astrea snails pose no threat to corals or other tank inhabitants – they simply focus on cleaning surfaces as part of the aquarium’s natural cleanup crew. We offer them in convenient bulk packs (10, 25, 50, or 100 snails), allowing you to easily stock the right number for your aquarium’s needs. (Each snail is approximately ½–1″ in size when shipped.) Proper Tank Conditions \u0026amp; Care For long-term health, maintain stable saltwater conditions: temperature 72–78°F, pH 8.1–8.4, alkalinity 8–12 dKH, and specific gravity around 1.023–1.025. Adequate calcium and trace elements in the water support their shell growth, and an established aquarium with plenty of live rock provides ample surfaces for grazing. In most cases, a mature tank will naturally offer sufficient food, but if resources are ever scarce you can supplement their diet with dried seaweed (nori) or specialized herbivore pellets. Note that Astrea Turbo Snails are not adept at climbing smooth glass walls; if one flips upside down, it may need help getting upright to avoid being stranded. As with all marine invertebrates, they require good water quality – high nitrate levels can stress or harm them, and any copper in the water (from medications or other sources) is lethal to snails. Acclimation \u0026amp; Live Arrival Guarantee Proper acclimation is crucial for Astrea Turbo Snails due to their sensitivity to sudden water chemistry changes. We strongly recommend using a drip acclimation method to slowly adjust the snails to your tank’s conditions over 1–2 hours, minimizing any stress or shock. Every order comes with a detailed acclimation guide pamphlet to help you introduce your new snails safely. We also take extra care in packaging and shipping these snails and offer a live arrival guarantee for your peace of mind. In the unlikely event any snails arrive DOA (dead on arrival), simply contact us for a prompt refund or replacement – no need to return the deceased animal. With proper care and acclimation, Astrea Turbo Snails will settle in quickly and become hardy, beneficial members of your reef aquarium’s cleanup crew\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cdiv id=\"feature-bullets\" class=\"a-section a-spacing-medium a-spacing-top-small\"\u003e\n \u003cul class=\"a-unordered-list a-vertical a-spacing-mini\"\u003e\n  \u003cli class=\"a-spacing-mini\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-list-item\"\u003e Natural Clean Up Crew: Efficient herbivores that consume nuisance growths, cyanobacteria (red slime), and diatoms.
