Hello Everyone! Christmas and New Years are soon approaching and I have some critters that will really help enhance the look of your tank. Whether you need a good clean up crew, need some extra color and movement, or just need to fill in some bare spots in the tank, I have some critters for you.
Margarita Turbo Snails-
These guys will eat lots of algae and unlike many snials will readily consume hair algae as well! They have black shells with black bodies and are roughly 3/4"-1" in size on average.

$.54 each if you buy 1-10
$.50 each if you buy 11-24
$.45 each if you buy 25+
Jumbo Nassarius Snails-
These are one of the best sand sifters and are really beautiful in shell shape and color. Each snail has a unique pattern. These snails are extremely active and will not only consume detritus but also left over food particles and algae bits to boot. They keep the sandbeds turned over regularly keeping it nice and white. I have two other varieties of nassarisus sp. snails in aswell!

$1.19 each if you buy 5-9

Mexican Turbo Snails-
I think these guys are probably the hardest working algae eaters that I have ever seen! They consume algae like it is going out of style. I had two very dirty tanks a few weeks ago and literally the night after I tossed in the Mexican turbos, the tanks were spotless!

Tiger Conch-
Great sand sifters and awesome critters to help keep your tank clean. These guys are very fun to watch! They have a long mouth kind of like an elephants trunk, long protruding eyes, and a foot that kicks them an inch or two in whatever direction they are traveling. They are about 1.5-2" in length. I also have two other conch varieties in this week.
