Up to you, if you have a bunch of snails that you don't want eaten that are reproducing in the refugium, you might want to take him back. If there's...
Yeah, it's not a true buccinid whelk, but it's a whelk relative in the Tulip family, Leucozonia nassa. Pretty common predatory snail in Florida. It...
They're pretty easy to kill, and like Corailline says, they don't usually live very long in an aquarium (nor in the wild, for that matter)....
That guy is...Cymatium nicobaricum, the Nicobar Triton. If the shell weren't so encrusted (and it was in great condition), it would look like this:...
Looks like bubble algae, Valonia. Don
Yup, most of the ones you'll see associated with your zoanthids don't get much over half an inch in width. There are some other species...
It also eats snails, but probably couldn't eat a Nassarius or Stomatella. It would more likely eat slow-moving or sessile snails like some other...
Yep, that's a pretty common snail in the Indo-Pacific intertidal zone, usually stuck to rocks. It's Morula granulata, a small muricid with a fairly...
SushiGirl is probably right, they are most likely either Collonista/Homalopoma species or rissoids, depending on the shape. There is a very slim...
That's a chiton. Harmless. Cheers, Don
Yeah, that's a really big fighting conch, they don't get much bigger than that. There are a handful that get bigger. There are three spider conch...
It's sort of a nerite, just in a different subfamily from the ones you probably see most most of the time. It's one of the snails called a...
Hard to be certain from the pic. It's not a Stomatella, and it's not a flatworm. It does like like a really elongated keyhole limpet, although the...
I can't think of any predatory or parasitic snails that look even remotely similar to little white sundials, Danny. Maybe they were eating algae off...
There are several little white species in the Collonista subfamily, and all are good guys. In fact, just about anything that looks like a Turbo is a...
Pagojoe's expertise is mainly focused on Indo-Pacific prosobranch marine gastropods, so any suggestions I give outside of that area should be...
Sorry I was slow getting back here, but was offline for a day and a half. Glad to see you got it ID'ed anyway! Most people are calling your snail...
Glad you got it ID'ed. I've never seen them clustered on a live nerite like that!!! They normally tend to clump on slow-moving, larger shells, or...
SushiGirl's is in a whole different family (and superfamily), but yes, the ark clams can and do crawl. Those are pretty tough, so it might make it...
