bought a new 11 pound Fiji rock a couple days ago and am seeing a small snail and crab, probably more critters yet to be discovered. The snail is probably 1/16 of an inch across and the crab is about 1/8 of an inch across (very rough estimates). Please let me know if either of the guys are known pests. Thanks much!

pretty hard to see the snail, but it is in the middle of this shot. It has a creme colored shell, pointed, with black dots. Also some sorts of flora/fauna growing on the shell.

  • None! My inverts are model citizens. :-)
