    I bought a snail thinking its a conch...maybe a whelk? i dont see him go on the sand, i just see him either on the glass or on the rocks. Its very slow and doesnt do much. I did see him on top of my turbo snail, but it didnt kill him.
    Heres some pictures:

    Also saw this worm looking thing... anyone know what this is? good or bad? Looking at this website:Worm Hitch Hikers... it might be a ribbon worm or Sipunculida worm

    Not sure about your snail but the worm is a peanut worm and perfectly harmless :)

    It looks to me like more than one worm, over to the right of the one there is another thing that look like a worm also, only on the 1st pic not on the 2nd. the snail look like an astrea of some sort
