    unidentified snail, conch, or what?

    So I got a 30# package of live rock from KP aquatics and along with everything else there is this snail I can't ID. It has a rolled edge to the shell kinda like a conch, but it is covered in fuzz/hair that I don't see on any of the conches. Can anyone ID?

    What is this snail and what's it blowing into my tank!?

    I was just taking a look around the tank this morning and spotted what I think might be a stomanella snail? Was hoping that the group could confirm. Also, I have never, ever, seen a snail blow this smoke-like substance or whatever into my tank, but it's making me nervous. Any guidance is...

    Snails spawned. Should I be concerned?

    Just now I had all 10 of my trochus snails spaw in my 20g nano. Should I be concerned? The water is looks a little cloudy and I can see a lot of eggs floating around. Do I need to do a water change? Is it going to affect my parameters? Thanks in advance.

    ID: Some sort of snail or worm?

    The last few days i've noticed a bunch of pen tip sized white spots pop up on my glass. I managed to get a pretty good picture of it. Are these baby snails or some type of worm? It looks like a shell.

    What is in my snail?

    I’ve had this snail for a couple of months, and didn’t think anything of the white spot that was on it. Tonight I was looking at everything, and saw this white spot open like a small clam. It’s an almost pearl white, and very hard. Anyone have an idea of what it is? Is it going to effect my...

    I just got this birdsnest colony last week. Well I dipped it with Bayer for 15 minutes at 10ml per cup, rinsed through three stages and put it in QT.

    Never seen this (snail?) Before! HUGE!

    So i have my tank running for almost 2.5 years now and i have never seen this one before! Shined my cell's light at night, saw this (snail? Hopefully) about 4.5-5.5 inches long on the backwall...! Any idea what this one is? Not even sure where it was hiding all this time!

    My Turbo Snail is hosting feather dusters

    Just thought I would share one of my turbo snail hosting a pair of feather dusters. I'm also worried they might hurt the snail somehow in the long run, what do you guys think? They appear to be on the outside of the shell, at least for now.

    Very small, unfriendly looking snail on acro

    Found this guy on an acro that's been struggling even after correcting a number of issues. Hes about 2mm long. I took no prisoners, he is drying out on the kitchen counter now.

    Nerites being bums

    Hey guys. I just added more nerites to my tank. Theyve been in about three days. I added them to try and tackle the diatoms and algae problem. However, the last two days they have almost all been in the top corner of the tank where the auto feeder is. Yesterday I took them off the glass and...

    Critter ID

    Hello! I’m completely new to having a saltwater tank and I’m trying to learn as much as possible. The other day I got a feather duster (been in my tank for 3 days) and today I saw this little guy crawling on him. Looks like a really tiny snail but I’m not sure.

    "Invested/reverse" Trochus snail

    Hello, Today I was cleaning my tank and found a Trochus snail I that I hadn't seen for awhile and assumed he had been eaten. I didn't pay much attention after that until I was looking in tonight and noticed the snail is upside down in its shell (It moves on its shell instead of the substrate)...

    Just noticed this on a snail making a trip across the front glass... Had a quick check around the forum + Google. Something common, good/bad? Photo color is an accurate representation.

    BTA eating turbo?

    The snail was pressing on the BTA’s foot (I guess) and he flattened out, then pulled the turbo into his mouth. Should I be worried? I’ve read of anemones suddenly dying after eating snails. BTW, there is another turbo right behind it. Thanks for any advice
