Hello all and happy new year to all

Just saw a stranger on the reef. He has a flattish white shell and a big mantle with two antennas. He’s about 1/4” so he’s probably a baby. I suspect Stomatella Snail but I’d like my reefer brothers and sisters to chime in. Whaddaya think?

Yep! Looks like a Stomatella. Great hitchhiker!

One of the best algae eaters you can rarely purchase and will be active in the evening/night and hide during the day
