Woke up this morning to a dead snail with a weird green looking growth on it. My pods were either eating it or the snail, couldn't tell which. The video looks best towards the end. Thanks

It doesn't appear to have moved since I noticed it this morning.

do you have any anemones that would have split or something? it almost looks like a tiny carpet, idk how they reproduce though.

 

[Heehee]

Nope. I pulled it out 24 hours later to see if it would move. No movement. Very light material that would easily break off when touched. I dipped some to see what would happen but I had to leave the house and forgot to look at it.

Is it possible this guy choked to death on some algae?

Also looks like some kind of fungus or bacterial slime that could be eating the corpse

Yes, it fell apart easily when picked up. I have sinus issues and can't smell well, so I'm not sure but it might have.

sounds like it may hae been the visceral organs of the snail, since they eat lots of algae it will be releasing lots of green and fluffy material bound with the mucus
