    Snail ID

    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.

    Spiny Star Astraea Snail Babies

    So I guess two my Astraea snails had babies? What's weird is I own no Spiny Star versions, but now I have like 10 babies that all have that shell type. Not sure if other people have had this happen, but thought I'd share because I thought it was pretty cool.

    Snail tumbled into Trachyphyllia’s hungry mouth...

    Last night I witnessed an astraea snail tumble off the rocks and landed directly on a large trachyphyllia that happened to have its feeding tentacles out. The snail was instantly enveloped and disappeared. I am worried about the shell inside the coral. My plan is to keep an eye on the...
