Trochus pyramis – Algae-eating Snail from Indonesia

Trochus pyramis, also known as Tectus pyramis, is a marine detritivore snail particularly effective at removing algae and biofilm from the live rocks in your reef aquarium. Native to Indonesia, it is highly appreciated for its discretion and efficiency.

An Efficient and Coral-Friendly Cleaner

Unlike other larger or clumsier snails, the Trochus pyramis does not move corals and does not damage the décor. It performs a remarkable job in maintaining the cleanliness of your aquarium while remaining very discreet. It is a valuable ally in combating unwanted algae, especially on live rocks and hard surfaces.

Maintenance Conditions

  • Recommended minimum volume: 100 liters
  • Recommended quantity: 5 to 10 individuals per 100 liters
  • Water flow: moderate to strong
  • Lighting: standard to intense
  • Compatibility: 100% reef-safe, corals and invertebrates

Precautions During Acclimation

When introducing the Trochus pyramis into your aquarium, it is imperative not to take the snail out of the water with the operculum facing down. Indeed, the entry of an air bubble into the shell could lead to the death of the animal. A drip acclimation is recommended to minimize stress.

Why Choose Trochus pyramis?

  • Excellent grazer of algae and biofilm
  • Does not damage corals or décor
  • Discreet, active day and night
  • Perfectly suited for all reef aquariums

Trochus pyramis is an essential snail for natural and effective maintenance of your marine aquarium. Thanks to its compact size and décor-friendly behavior, it integrates perfectly into any reef tank, even the most populated with fragile corals.
