Striped Trochus Snail

Striped Trochus snails are essential algae-eating invertebrates for reef and planted aquariums. These hardy grazers actively consume nuisance algae across rocks, glass, and substrate, helping maintain water clarity and tank aesthetics. Their distinctive self-righting ability—a unique muscular mechanism that flips them upright if overturned—ensures they recover quickly from disturbances and continue their cleaning work uninterrupted. Tolerant of varied water conditions, Trochus snails thrive in established systems and pair well with other peaceful invertebrates. A reliable, low-maintenance addition to any aquatic community.
