Die Tiere ernähren sich von Aufwuchsalgen. Das sie aktiv Cyanos aufnehmen kann ich nicht bestätigen.
Hab mal 5 Tiere von einem Freund bekommen. Konnte in den Jahren bestimmt einige hundert weitergeben.

Nachtaktiv..... verstecken sich Tagsüber im Riff. Mit der Dämmerung kommen sie in Scharen ;o)

Ich habe diese Schnecke mit einer Steinkoralle bekommen. Seit dem vermehrt diese Art sehr gut und frisst alle Algen ausser Cyanos. Inzwischen habe ich die Schnecken an bekannte Aquarianer weitergegeben und auch da vermehren sie sich je nach Nahrungsangebot sehr gut. Nette Tiere die das Becken sauber halten und daher sehr nützlich sind.

Ich halte diese Schnecken seit einiger Zeit. Vermehren sich sehr gut und fressen sogar aktiv Cyanos!
