[TD="class: alt1, bgcolor: #EBEBEB"]Ok so this snail is not really reef related but kinda. I bought some mangroves from a user on ReefCentral. They are awesome and very healthy and were in my tank about 2 weeks. I didn't like the way they looked in my tank so I planted the mangroves in a jar. Per instructions I found on the net I used pea gravel and filled with fresh water. This snail appeared after about 2 weeks and several full changes of the water in the jar. My question is: Is this a freshwater snail or a saltwater snail? Could it have been on the roots and I didn't see it? I did use pea gravel out of my yard but this definitely looks like an aquatic snail. Here is the best pic I could get:

Thank you for any help.

Looks sort of like a glowing Marginella
