    Snail? Yes? No?

    Yeah, those are papillae on the mantle (they inflate and deflate, like the little dendritic structures on some cowries). I don't know if they serve...

    Snail ? Is it reef safe ?

    I just realized there was a second snail visible in the third pic that isn't a Busycon. I think the angle of the photo is making it look more...

    Tiny snails eating my zoas

    Well, sorry to hear about that. The nudi's won't live that long without food, maybe a month or so. Some nudibranchs have longer life cycles, but...

    weird hairy thing

    I'm sure you're right about it being a bivalve. Hard to guess which one without killing it and cleaning it, though. You can find both mussels and...

    Some kind of slug (or maybe nudibranch)

    Some kind of slug (or maybe nudibranch)

    Here I stumble, but not with very good news. It's an arminid nudibranch and feeds on soft corals. That particular one seems to come in fairly often...

    Tiny snails eating my zoas

    Tiny snails eating my zoas

    I'd be interested in seeing a larger pic of the snail. Can you just crop that pic so that it shows up with more snail in the pic and less...
