Hi all,
I added 2 Trochus to my tank a week ago. Both are coming from the same tank of the supplier and got acclimated together. However, one of the Trochus seems to be not moving or eating. He is alive as I can see him extend some parts of body parts but his mouth is not. When I move him...
Hello!
I was feeding the kids this morning and noticed about 10 of these little guys in my tank- I did not buy them…. The only snails I have purchased are nassarius snails and cerith snails- my cerith reproduce pretty well but this is a new guy and his friends- party crasher or free CUC...
Hi! I tried to do my own research but I’m coming up with multiple answers, I personally think they’re Astrea Snails or Turbo Snails. My boyfriend thinks they might be Nassarius Snails but my lord we have dozens on dozens of these little guys now. The Nassarius snails are lay eggs everywhere but...
My konch has grey shell. I know how they look with normal shell. I was thinking that it's just algae, but after i scrubbed some algae off it was still grey. No snails vere harmed, he was just looking funny at me. Conches are not the only snails I've seen with grey shell, a lot of other marine...
Excuse the poor photo/video. Macrophotography is not m forté. I found this little guy attached to one of my frags. Should I add him to the tank or keep him away?
So I noticed this guy scooting around gobbling up algae off my glass, looks almost like a snail with no shell. Tried to zoom in but still a little blurry. Some extra details you can't see in the images, has long eyes and two antennas (yes.. I know I've just described a snail). For extra I have a...

Hello,
I’m kinda new to the saltwater hobby, having my tank for about 6-7 months now and I just noticed this mollusk type animal on my glass.
Can anyone tell me if it should be removed, if it harms my corals or fish maybe, or if it’s just a cool new addition to my tank?
Any help would be...
Hello,
Im kinda new to the aquarium hobby, having my saltwater tank for about 8 months now, and I noticed this mollusk type animal on my glass.
Could anyone tell me if it’s a parasite or just a new addition to my tank?
Any help would be appreciated thank you
Hey guys, I have a derasa clam who’s been doing great for over a month now. The other day he developed a hole in his mantle — so I’ve performed a fresh water dip and relocated him )”(unsure if something may have messed with him).
After the dip, I noticed a bunch of snail shells around him...
Hey guys, I got a shipment from reef cleaners yesterday and a bunch of my Astrea and turbo snails have these mollusks attached to their shells. They seem to camouflage with each snail’s shell. My guess is limpets. Can anyone confirm?
Nerite snail just passed away. Lived a good life of algae snacking. Had a pretty shell.
Wanted to know the best method of removing the snail from its shell for disposal. I'd like to place the shell back into the tank for hermits. Is there a way that doesn't involve gradually letting it rot out...
(ALL GONE)
I'm moving across the country in a couple months and am having to break down my tank. Now that I have unloaded a decent chunk of my corals, I'm starting to sell off my fish and inverts.
I'm happy to be super transparent, as I'd like these fish and inverts to go to fellow hobbyists...
Hello,
I ordered a bunch of snails and was wondering what these two are? Trying to get good pics but it’s somewhat difficult as they are extremely small.
Thanks
Hi there - I’ve had this snail for about 2 weeks and just noticed this scab/lesion looking thing on his back (not the shell). Any idea what this is or if it’s a sign of something bad for my other fish?
Guys, I’m sorry but after searching high & low..I need help. Below are some pictures of some snails that only come out at night, no bigger than a fresh water assassin snail and similar in shape only orange/brown & black. I’m new to this but very familiar with fresh water. I inherited a 400ltr...
My aquarium is brand new, only about 3 days old at this point, and a stomatella snail that hitchhiked from live rock just died. I tested my water at the store today and the results were 0 ammonia, 0 nitrite, 0 nitrate, 0.5 phosphate, and 1.026 salinity. The lfs worker told me the salinity may be...
There is such a wide variety of both hermit crabs and snails, are some more or less compatible with eachother than others? Would a smaller hermit crab like a scarlet still kill a snail like a large trochus who's shell wouldn't even be suitable for such a crab? I would like to hear peoples'...
Nearly Free to Good Home (1$): a couple Red Mithrax Crabs, whatever few snails I can capture (turbo and assorted others). One sea urchin, Pasadena, CA 91105. Pick up only. Text me: 310-560-3656 or DM via this forum. My tank no longer needs bulldozers in the clean up crew. Note, these crabs have...
