Hi, this one I got by friend of mine, still not sure what's it ID. it look like conch snail, but I can't find it, got and empty shell of the same SP, and the white dot on the shell are semi transparent, looking light thru them can see the light.
More PHOTOS here + the empty shell for ID...
Hi everyone I am in process of building my own clean up cre for my new 120 mixed, and curious if anyone has knowledge or has a cheat sheet of what each type of clean up crew invert is good at. Specifically the differences in hermits and how they can help for specific algae or what snails are...
Howdy! a couple days ago I noticed this white stuff growing on one of my snails and I’m not sure what it is or if it’s dangerous for the rest of my tank. I’m still kinda new and learning any help would be much appreciated!
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.
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.
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
All of my zoanthid frags starting disappearing over night and I noticed these snails a few days before I noticed my zoas gone. If anyone can ID them for me that would be much appreciated. Need to know if I need to completely wipe them out or not. Has anyone else had their zoas disappear within...
Hello fellow Reefers,
This is my first time posting and need some help. I found this guy in my display tank next to a hard coral that looked like it had bees nibbled on. I put it in my sump for awhile before removing it to the toilet. Now I notice about what seems to be babies from this guy...
This snail has been upside down stretching itself out for the past 24 hours. Even if I right it back up, it'll get back to this position. Every other snail in my tank is fine, including 3 other nassarius snails. I have been feeding general cure binded with focus, but I doubt that's the reason...
So I was observing my tank and to my surprise I ran into something very strange that caught my eye. It seems to be a type of snail but without a shell. This “snail” is a little smaller than a dime. Help would be appreciated! It’s kinda creepy! *See images below*
Some info: brand new reef tank. 13g. In day 3 of cycling. Saw this guy on my rock when I came home and turned on the lights. Video attached.
Thanks guys!

My first idea was to poke it and rip them open looks like a dust comes out i suspect snail eggs or something looks like eggs that’s for sure isn’t calcium cause it’s only on the rocks and shells...
Hey all,
Before I order snails by mail to be shipped in this 100 degree weather... :) I wanted to see if there are any local shops that usually carry them?
Kona Reef in Phoenix usually don't...
Recommendations?

Two for one here:
Question 1 is what are the eggs pictured below from? They are all over the place. I have searched for a few days now and cannot find an answer. It is about 3/16" or 5mm.
I have introduced 2 Astraea (I believe, pictured below), ~18 Cerith snails and 6 dwarf blue leg hermits...
I found this small orange snail in my tank this morning. He would have originated from some live rock that was acquired through gulf reef live rock. Thanks as always for your help!

Hi all, this sunday i got a few new snails, and i just noticed a pleasant little surprise, a mushroom growing on a snail? Ive looked for pictures online of this happening, but have found nothing. Will the mushroom continue to grow in harmony with the snail? Will the coral kill the snail? Should...
Need ID please
He was in the coral base that I was dipping into Coral RX, promptly died after but was wondering what type of snail it was. Sorry for the picture quality it was hard to get a good picture. It had a red shell with spots. Reminded me of a lady bug
