What is this little creature?

 

[robert]

looks like a stomatella to me - a good guy...

 

[steiger33]

It was weird to me considering snails normally have a full she'll and this guy looks to be half the size

+1 for stomatella snail. I was lucky enough to get a couple and they are the hardest working members of my clean up crew :D

Yeo. Great to have:-)

 

[steiger33]

Thank you. It weirded me out since I had never seen one and I have been battling bristle worms, medusa and bobbit over the last 2 months. All I could think is what now.

Glad to see this is a good guy. I will be moving it to my show tank

Hey wiz.

I was just reading the other posts where the guy tore it in half and how you wanted one. I will be tearing down the tank that I was battling everything in the next 2 months so if I find anymore I will let you know. Especially if I find multiple ones.

Ditto on the Stomatella Snail, they are great grazers!

I got a couple of those and their awsome! I rarely see them during the day though, I mainly see them on the glass when I turn the lights on. They are constantly cleaning and nice, @Wiz . Dude I just can't imagine why you'd want a bobbit lol. Idk, guess it could be could be cool in a deep sand bed worm specific tank. Would be fun to scare people that came over haha.

Yep. Just like diffferent creatures. The bobbit is an amazing worm! Exactly the opposite of what your mind pictures when you think "worm". A crazy predator with a unique hunting method.I have a 6" oolitic dsb in my fuge and it would be easy to insure it could not escape. I would be so siked!

Just make sure the thing doesn't somehow get through your pump to the dt, that would be bad haha. I watched videos online, those things are just insane.
