Absolut problemlos. Hier gab's ebenfalls heimlich Nachwuchs. Eine halbwüchsige Trochus schneckt herum. :)

Wir haben diese Turboschnecken ebenfalls in unseren Aquarien.
Sie sind sehr fleißig und fressen kontinuierlich Algen ,Cyanos und andere organische Reste.Sind daher sehr effektiv .
Allerdings haben wir auch schlechte Erfahrungen mit Importierten Tieren machen müssen. Trotz aller Mühe beim eingewöhnen sind ein Großteil davon gestorben.
Jetzt halten wir nur noch Nachzuchten und diese sind total robust und auch bei weitem aktiver

Habe diese Schnecke auch im Aquarium. Sie hat sich auch still und heimlich vermehrt. Schätze sie als absolut Problemlos ein.
