Fenestrate top snail — size comparison — facts and sources

Tectus fenestratus is a marine snail with a tall conical shell. A broad muscular foot powers movement and extended tentacles explore surroundings.

It travels over hard surfaces scraping algae and fine growth, feeding on aquarium rocks and glass in this way. Other organisms may colonise its shell and change its visible colour and texture.
