I can confirm that the Turbo snails I got from J & L definately eat the red cotton algae. They will eat a section the same size as the snail in about 20 minutes. Unbelievable.

Chin, thanks for the note. I have been siphoning and, although Jeff at J&L said his turbos wouldn't eat this stuff, I bought 2 and have been putting them on the red stuff. We'll see how it goes.
