    After changing my water/salt today and admiring my new orange spotted watchman goby.. I noticed a snail with something on its back. Low and behold it was a coral. Just one small coral, it is tentacled (brown) and has a neon green inner mouth looking thing. Kind of looks like an anemone. I saw some info on another thread with a debate on what it was.

    Has anyone had coral on their snails shell before?
