I thought this was interesting. I've had multiple snails, but none of them seem to do what these Mexican turbo snails are capable of all. I bought three from LiveAquaria, ever since, my tanks algae across the glass has been clearing up extremely quick. I've also added carbon/phosban and cheato.

However, I thought this was cool because it shows the work they did over night. I've been meaning to clean these powerheads for about a week now. I normally siphon the major stuff off. I guess they couldn't get the area where the K4 is pulling in water.

Very nice. When my fans get growth on them I usually turn them off for a day and my blenny or tang cleans them up nicely. A nice alternative.
