I do have turbo snails in tank
 
Wow, seems like everyone has these now @Lionfish Lair !
These are collonista snails. Seems like theyre part of a CUC. I just found a ton in my tank last night. From what I understand, they eat algae and are reef safe.
 
They're relatively new in the hobby and I'm sure it's because now-a-days we share rock and frags. Live rock used to be live from the ocean... not live from someone else's tear down. I don't really remember them before, say 15 years ago.
 
Perfect because I have a explosion of them il trashed a couple 100 over , do they get big?
 
It's been about a year now for me. In the last four months or so the population has really declined.

There's different species that grow to different sizes. The largest you see out of the current grouping is probably as large as they get. My current ones, you can barely see the adults.
