Have two Astraea snails as part of my CUC. I noticed either a growth or a body part on the bottom today - pic attached.

is this a normal body part, or something to be concerned with?

p.s. - I thought it might be an anus, but I wife thought I was crazy. :)

Looks like a tube worm attached to the shell. Harmless filter feeder. Definitely not an anus. Don't worry, he's not winking at you. ;)

HOW MUCH DOES A FISH’S FEEDING REQUIREMENTS AFFECT YOUR STOCKING DECISIONS?

  • A lot! - I avoid fish that require frequent or specialized feeding

    Votes: 21 32.8%

  • Quite a bit, but an automatic feeder can change my answer

    Votes: 9 14.1%

  • It depends on whether my nutrient export can handle it

    Votes: 9 14.1%

  • It depends on how badly I want the fish

    Votes: 13 20.3%

  • Not much. I’m willing to adjust my routine

    Votes: 10 15.6%

  • Not at all. Feeding demands don’t limit my stocking choices

    Votes: 12 18.8%

  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!

    Votes: 2 3.1%

  • I haven’t really considered this before

    Votes: 4 6.3%

  • Something else (see my comments in the thread)
