^^ that pretty much. i never had a turbo but I've always have this problem netrites. i would just toss them back in every morning till i lost them all. now i just have one thats smart enough to stay in the tank.

Rimmed tank, lid, mesh top, tank hood... All work.

 

I guess it's just something you deal with if you want that clean, rimless look?

 

Although, with as many things you have hanging off and sticking up everywhere, that's not what you're after!

:P

My snails were just doing the same thing, but climbing down the outside of the tank. For how small they are, they sure can grip that wall tight!

What kind of turbo is that? Probably will stay in once they learn their boundaries.

well after Malaysia chinese new year going to get myself a dosing pump to replace gravity feed auto top up. This will help me to cut down the hanging water bottle. :D

 

When you say hanging stuff i think one is my refugium , gravity feed water bottol and also my light? ;)

looks like Astraea snail to me, but all above is correct they will keep doing this without a lid/mesh. I just pulled 3 from my overflow last night.

My turbo snails will eventually end up on my nano cover feeding lid, so thankfully they can't get out but they clearly would if that wasn't there. Even better was when I had a big blue hermit climb out of my sump (he was in there for timeout because he was killing my snails). I heard my rat terrier in the living room going nuts over something, and when I came around the corner, the hermit crab and the dog were squared off in mortal combat in the middle of the floor...pretty funny.
