I have a 120 that has been up for about 1.5 years. Everything is flourishing, yet snails continue to slowly die. I quarantined 5 turbos and introduced to my DT 2 weeks ago. They did clean well for a few days, but since they have been falling off everywhere and barely are moving now. They have plenty to eat, there is a lot of turf and other misc algaes they can get to. I have also noticed my nass snails are pretty much all empty shells now. I used to also have an absolute butt load of stomatella snails and now I rarely see them.
I have read that turbos dont make it long in our tanks due to temp, but this was only a few weeks after quarantine for 4.
Alk: 8.3
Calc: 425
Mag: 1350
Phos: rarely above .02
Nitrate: 0 (but chaeto and DT algaes still growing decently)
Salinity: 1.026
These values have been very stable for the entire tank.
I will say they were perfectly fine in the quarantine, so assume something is off on my DT. ICP tests are typical (some traces low, but no pollutants to note)
