snail

I have freshwater assassin snail, can i put them in my salt water tank?

I left my house for 2 days and came back to my tank with these guys in here. Anyone know what these are? The video isn’t very clear but they look like baby shrimps. If this helps, I turned off the lights during those two days to try and get rid of some of my algae and see how they would respond...

Woke up to feed the fish in the morning, then I saw three of my nasarius eating one turbo snails, the turbo snail didn't seem to be dying since I saw it last night moving in the glass, maybe it fell off and couldn't get up again? Is this a normal behaviour for nasarius?

Hey everyone, Like the title of this post reads, my turbo snail apparently laid eggs and they all seem to have hatched today. Is there anything I need to be doing about this? I'd imagine that letting them all grow up in my small 55 with limited algae to feed on will result in a lot of...

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

Hey guys - rescued some dip casualties and were wondering what the survivors are…

I woke up this morning and found 14 of these strange little guys creeping up my glass in my saltwater tank. Can anyone help ID these? I have searched high and low and can not find anything similar. https://studio.youtube.com/video/5a9Hveudz3s/edit

I just noticed white spots on the rock and snail right by the rock? I’m assuming some type of egg but i don’t really know? It’s just in that spot i haven’t seen it anywhere else in the tank.

The ORA Build is BACK! Earlier this year, we teamed up with the one and only ORA to set up a fully aquacultured reef-- from substrate/rock and inverts, to corals and fish! Absolutely nothing in this aquarium came from the ocean. (You can watch the full series here: ORA + WB: AIO PENINSULA...

Found this guy on my glass today and was wondering what it could be. I haven't added anything in probably 2-3 months, one which was a clump of Dragons' Breath/Chaeto macroalgae. Current list of snails is as follows: 5-7 Ceriths 1 Bumblebee 1 Magherita (maybe 2?) 2 Money Cowrie It looks almost...

Hi everyone, I just bought a bunch of cerith about a week ago. Since I’ve had them they all hang out right at the water line. Almost looks like they’re trying to escape. Tank temp is 78.7-79.0, haven’t had a chance to test my water but everything else (fish/coral/exsisting CUC) are doing...

Bought a used setup and this snail came with it. He is the size of a small apple. Just want to know what it is and if it is reef safe? Thumb for scale

Can someone tell me if this normal for a Trochus Snail? I have about 15 of them and two of them have these "tentacles" that are coming from the outer shell. Both of these two snails have a hole or crack in the shell as all others seem pretty solid. When I grabbed them for inspection they retract...

hi y’all! bought a frag from our LFS and this was at the bottom of the post.. looks like some sort of snail, any ideas?

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… https://youtube.com/shorts/9F5JZiSNdLE?feature=share

So, I've just come across something weird today. So at the beginning of the day I see a cerith snail riding on top of another cerith snail. Just now, I saw it again...This time on the front glass just before I went to turn my room lights off for bed. Just wondering, are they fighting? My...

Could this be caused by low calcium? I'm not sure but I've posted another thread that had my parameters and they said that my calcium and magnesium was a little low but I should be fine for what I have in the tank. These were Fridays readings. Ammonia 0ppm Nitrite 0 - 0.01ppm Nitrate 3.5ppm...

Hellos guys, just found this guys in my tanks. I was looking around the tanks at night, with all the pumps off and found this guys. I believe him to be a nasarrius snail, but it is striped. I could see his “antena” and had sobre stripes. Is it possible to ID a snail just by its shell? thanks

Just set up my first saltwater tank (FOWLR) and found this in a piece of cured live rock. What the heck is it and how can I remove it. Whether it’s harmless or not, I don’t like it’s ugly mug.

I bought my first ever coral about 4 months ago, a small 2 head Torch and a fungia plate coral, I dipped them both and got a small flatworm off the torch luckily. A few days into owning the torch and watching it get used to the water and extend, I noticed a little section of bristly exoskeleton...

I got some nassarius snails from a seller ive bought nassariusses from but they were much darker in color hoping its a different species. They are much more active in the tank than my all white ones. They do move quickly on the sand but i have never seen a whelk so im not sure how fast they are...

So about 3 weeks ago I added a very large single snail to my tank. I believed it was a Trochus snail. But it was sold as an omen snail according to my LFS. When I first got him he has been fine but has just been on the glass and not touched my rocks or substrate. It is very large around a £5...

Hypothetically if you were Australian and you were struggling for months to find a distributor in your country to purchase a specific Nudibranch you have researched in depth, and it is illegal to import pretty much all marine animals in Australia without a license. And you didn't want a license...

Title I had JUST cleaned my tank and who do I see, a little snail with a long neck. It was TINY so I couldn’t get a decent pic. I did loss track of him. does anyone know if I should get this guy out sooner rather then later?

This looks more like a bug from the top and a snail from the bottom. color - black length - without antenna approx. 1.35cm. (with antenna-feelers stretched out approx. 2 cm. shape - flat-oval, like a bug had a strong suction on the glass of the tank is it a reef tank friend or foe ? Keep or...
