I found a turbo snail on the sandbed that hadn't been moving much at all for a few days, maybe a few inches a day and so I decided to take it out and put it in the refugium and a few days later i noticed it hadn't moved at all and was dead (horrid smell when i took it out).
I'm noticing two other turbo snails slowing down in a similar fashion and now i'm worrying all my snails are slowly going to die this month. The two slow ones now look like they have their foot out or half out at least.
It's a 40B with:
~Royal Gramma
~Bengaii Cardinal
~Lawnmower Blenny
~5 Turbo Snails
~2 Astrea snails
I do weekly water changes of 10% doing one today.
I just did a parameter test and took out the dead snail yesterday:
~Phosphate: 0.25-0.5ppm
~Nitrate: 0ppm
~Nitrite: 0ppm
~Ammonia: 0.25ppm
~dKH: 9
~pH: 8.2
