    So I only put one turbo snail in my tank probably a month or two ago and now there are two really tiny light orange colored snails i see randomly grazing my rocks. Any idea if my snail had babies or if they showed up on the rocks or what? Also, any idea what kind of snails they might be?

    Your turbo didn't have babies that quickly. Your small snails are probably Collonistas, which look like tiny turbos. They are good algae eaters, and only grow to a few millimeters in width.

    Cheers,
