The Margarita Snail has a brown color. The Margarita Snail may grow to 1 inches. Herbivore. It likes to eat Herbivore, eats mainly Hair algae. The Margarites pupillus is generally peaceful toward other tankmates. Many consider the Margarites pupillus a low-maintenance specimen. Not venomous. Has lighting needs. The Margarita Turbo Snail is an excellent choice for hair algae removal from the aquarium. Although this snail is a colder water species, it can often live in cooler reef aquaria maintained at temperatures as high as 78 degrees but will last longer in cooler temperatures. Best kept in colder water aquariums with Catalina Gobies, Sand Dollars, Red Foot Snails and other colder water creatures. 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.
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. Keep water quality high (SG 1.023 - 1.025, pH 8.1 - 8.4, Temp. 72 - 78° F). The Margarita Snail is commonly collected from Baja California. This item comes to you in a general size.
