10-Pack Trochus Snails (Trochus spp.)
Build a stronger, healthier clean-up crew with this 10-Pack of Trochus Snails, one of the most effective algae-eating snails available for saltwater aquariums. Trochus Snails actively graze on film algae, diatoms, hair algae, and other nuisance algae while helping keep your live rock and aquarium glass clean.
Unlike many other algae-grazing snails, Trochus Snails are capable of righting themselves if they accidentally fall onto their backs, making them one of the hardiest and most reliable members of a reef aquarium cleanup crew.
Perfect for reef aquariums, fish-only systems, and larger tanks that need a dependable algae management solution.

Compatibility
Trochus Snails are peaceful herbivores that are compatible with nearly all reef-safe fish, corals, shrimp, crabs, and other invertebrates. They spend most of their time grazing on rocks and glass, helping reduce nuisance algae without disturbing corals.
If natural algae becomes limited, supplement their diet with algae wafers or dried seaweed (nori) to keep them healthy.
