OK, this is weird. I first noticed a bald patch a couple of weeks ago, where a turbo snail was working. So, I scrounged up the few I still had left (they tend to like committing suicide by turning over), and put them on my big table rock - the same rock I have the nudis working on (they are slow and expensive).

However, it APPEARS that the turbos are REALLY working the byropsis.

So, my questions are:

1) Can anyone positively identify the exact type of turbo from these pix? I believe I got them a couple of years ago from reeftopia: http://www.reeftopia.com/reefaquariumsnails.htm . Jan said "...where can I buy you a bunch of these...".

2) does anyone else here with this bryopsis have a bunch of turbos? If so, are they working at all?

Here are a couple of photos. Note that this rock is COVERED completely 1-2" deep, everywhere else.

I put this snail there last night, and this was taken this morning:


2 snails worked and denuded this patch:
