The Zebra Turbo Snail, also known as the Turban Snail, is a popular addition to marine aquariums due to its unique shell and ability to help control algae growth. With its striking black and white striped shell, the Zebra Turbo Snail adds a decorative touch to any aquarium. This snail is herbivorous, primarily feeding on algae and other plant material. It is also known to scavenge for leftover food and detritus, making it a useful addition to the cleanup crew in a marine aquarium. The Zebra Turbo Snail requires moderate to high water flow in the aquarium, and prefers a well-oxygenated environment. It is also sensitive to copper-based medications, which should be avoided in tanks where this snail is present. Reproduction in the Zebra Turbo Snail occurs via sexual reproduction, with fertilization occurring externally. These snails can lay up to 20 eggs at a time, which hatch into free-swimming larvae after a few weeks. In the aquarium, it is unlikely that these larvae will survive, so it is not a species that is typically bred in captivity.
