i just found this moving along on one of the rocks....

i have 3 astrea turbo snails and a mexican turbo snail. they all have been in the tank for quite some time now. all of a sudden i see this little guy moving along. i want to make sure he isnt dangerous before i let him back into the tank. to me, looks like a baby snail, but at the same time, i want to make sure its not a vermatid of some sort before they attach to a coral.

Could be a collonista snail, margarita snail. However, a vermintid snail will grow as a tube well before you see it. They are not normal roaming snails. They are a tube snail.
