The Turbo Snail, Astrea tecta, also known as the Astrea Snail, features a pale shell sometimes with striping. It is peaceful but shouldn't be housed with predatory fish or crabs that may attack it. The Turbo Snail prefers tanks with plenty of live rock to hide and forage for algae. They can be incredibly beneficial tank members for their penchant for algae-eating. It is reef safe and won't nip corals or other inverts. Like most snails, the Turbo requires minimal care and is an excellent choice for any home aquarium. They are the most popular snail species in the entire aquarium trade.
