We found this snail in our tank and cannot figure out what it is! We know it isn’t a bumble be snail. The body is white. We just really want to make sure it isn’t a harmful snail to our coral. It definitely hitchhiked on one of our newly bought coral frags. The store reps don’t know what it is...
Found this little guy wandering my tank glass this morning when putting up some new frag racks for some coral I had coming in. He/she was not one of our purchased cleanup crew. Did our clean up crew multiply or possibly a stomatella snail? Or is it something else that should probably be tossed...
8 month old tank. Snails I know off are 2 money cowrie, 2 bumblebee snail, 2 banded trochus, 2 nassairus snails, bunch of stomatella and a bunch of weird hitchhiker snails. had some eggs appear on my glass this morning wondered what they could be.
Hi Guys
can anyone help me with an ID of these baby snails which have appeared in my tank. I’ve seen approx 3 grazing on top of my rocks. I haven’t seen any snails laying eggs so not sure if it’s hitch hiked in on some frags.
In the tank I have a couple of turbos, Astraeas and Babylon snails.
Hey guys,
i just found those 3 guys that i’ve never seen before.
It’s been at least 3 months that nothing went in the tank because i was busy with school and my time for tank went south.
First 2 pics are, same guy, different angle (i think limpet).
Middle 3 pics are, same guys different angle...
Hi reefers hoping someone could help me with an id for this snail, ive had a look at all the most common hitchhikers and cant seem to pin point what it is, i have 2x trochus snails in my tank and a cronch, first thought was it was a sundial but now im wondering if its a baby trochus. Any help...
I found this in my tank a couple days ago. I have been searching for an ID on it since but am still at square one. Any help pointing me in the right direction, or anyone who knows whether it is safe to keep in display would be greatly appreciated.
I thought one of my kids dropped a marble in the...
I seem to have an explosion of these snails! Can someone hrlp me ID? I would also appreciate any advice - are these pests? If so, how can I eradicate them? Thanks in advace!
Hey Folks, so I noticed this little guy on the glass today, the tank is maybe about 5 or 6 months old, my rock is live rock but lately I haven’t added anything new, I’ve noticed some to what I believe are feather dusters that are growing on the rock work which I have no problem with however I...
I noticed these small snails all over my sump, filter socks, etc. I haven’t seen any in the display as of yet. I do have 2 turbo snails in my sump so I’m not sure if it’s possible they laid some eggs that hatched ? I doubt it as they seem to be really flat. I attached some pictures of one of the...
We just bought our first batch of livestock for our first marine tank yesterday.
We bought 6xCerith, 6xTrochus, 6xNassarius and 6 red legged hermits. Looks like we are losing the crabs slowly. I think 3 are already gone (24 hours). I caught a Nassarius smothering one, not sure if he was...
I bought a live rock from lfs which I usually refrain from due to unwanted pests, but it was a cool rock. While It was in quarantine this hitch hiker snail came crawling out. Ive spent about as long as I want to on google trying to determine the ID of this guy. I believe it to be a Nerite snail...
I just bought corals on October 31st and today i just noticed a really weird snail looking thing in my tank by my ricordea yuma mushroom coral. Is it safe to leave in the tank? I have a blue leg hermit crab and a trochus snail already and its a nano tank with 2 clowns.
I have noticed this snail pop up in my tank about a week ago, It looks quite pretty but I don’t know what it is, could someone ID it?
The inverts I currently have in the tank are: Randall’s pistol shrimp, cleaner shrimp, 1 trochus snail, 1 nassarius snail, 1 strawberry conch
-it’s grown quite fast
Best pictures I could get…this little guy was in a shipment of coral I received today.
it looks like a baby snail, I believe Trochus. Anyone with a better eye have other opinions?
best photos I could get, little guy is only the size of a pepper grain.
Anyone know what part of a snail tho could be?
my nassarius was climbed up on a rock and I could see an extra tube like part that was not the nose…
