turbo snail help

[Reefplumber13]

ok so i just found 2 of the 3 turbo snails i got from tim about a week ago upside down on the sand bed. why could this be? all the other snails are fine

that's something that turbos do. if you don't turn them back over they can actually die--it's a defect in turbos-lol; I find mine all the time turned over and I have to re-turn them-lol

 

[Reefplumber13]

well then ill go do that

ok so one of them must have been there allday it was kinda on the back siad or a rock so i didnt see him till the other one was a lil more out in the open
and yes i didnt try to get them out bc i thought they might have just been doing some snail games lol

 

[ericmcj31]

yeah they can lay over for a couple days; a lot of times the fish wil bump into them and knock them back on their 'feet'-lol;

 

[Reefplumber13]

lol well one was just the shell when i picked it up its door fell open.. but the other is doing just fine

 

[ericmcj31]

yeah they do that if you find them too late-
