Delivery and Shipping

Our quarantine procedures

We take livestock seriously. That's why we don't sell anything we wouldn't be comfortable putting in our own tank.

As we are direct from source, we import and sell direct to the public. This means you can buy with confidence knowing EMA prides itself on excellent handling and conditioning protocols.

All our fish held in a quarantine system for a minimum of 3 weeks. During this time, regular water changes are performed, and twice daily (or sometimes more) feedings are performed.

Copper is dosed and checked twice a day for ich and velvet.

During this treatment fish are given formalin baths for brooklynella and a minimum of 3 praziquantel doses is performed for flukes.

Description

Turbo Snails graze over rockwork and glass, helping manage suitable algae in an established marine aquarium. They are useful members of a clean-up crew, but their food supply still needs attention.

Aquarium care

Provide mature grazing surfaces, stable salinity and securely placed rockwork. Acclimate carefully and avoid copper-based treatments in the aquarium.

Feeding and compatibility

Natural algae should be available. Supplement with suitable marine algae foods when grazing becomes limited, and avoid adding more snails than the aquarium can support. Predatory wrasses, puffers, triggers and some crabs may eat them.

Photos are representative; individual shells and markings vary.
