Anyone have an idea on the life Span of Mex Turbo Snail?

Hey Mike,

I just found this on reefcentral :

These "Mexican" turbos are temperate animals; normally found in a waters with temperatures of 60F or less. While they can live decades in nature, they slowly cook at reef tank temperatures. They generally last from a few weeks to about a year before they poach. These are NOT animals that should be put into reef tanks at all.

That really interesting. I put 4 in my tank about 1 1/2 yrs ago. 2 are still alive one died about 4 months ago and another died yesterday. I thought there maybe something wrong but I guess that not bad.

thanks
