Snail Id on Derasa Clam

[Bpfor3]

I have had this Derasa for almost 2 years. Has grown very well, almost too well. It’s a good 9” now. This morning the sun hit the tank and I noticed these snails(?) near its Foot. Are these pyramid snails? I have a melanarus and six line. Will they eat them if they can get to them? Any advice? Should I try to manually remove or leave them be?

thanks!

Looks like the dreaded pyramid snails which will take it down. Remove every one you can find.

+ 1 on pyramid snails. Time to scrub scrub scrub and pick every single one off. U might have to do this several times until they are completely gone.

Thanks everyone. The scrubbing will commence tomorrow am.

Check every night after lights are off, that's when you'll see them. Good luck!

You must added some new clams in the last 6 months or so?
