snail ID...maybe?

discovered this guy after 2 months, its shell doesnt seem like a normal shell, but it is hard, but it has antlers and a mouth just like a turbo snail. Not the greatest pics, but does anybody know?

the one on the left, obviously

 

Stomatella Varia, very beneficial algae eater. Good part of the cleanup crew.

 

I am pretty sure that is a stomatella snail
Harmless and good for cleaning

best part of my clean up crew. only wish i could buy more of them. why wont anyone sell stomatellas? they are faster than most snails and can get into some of the smaller crevices.

 

Don't worry....if you see 2 or 3 it is guarenteed that in less then a month you will have 15
They reproduce like CrAzY

Sweet! thanks guys...I could tell by his speed and what it was munching on that he was a good guy, just needed to know what to call him. That would be great if there was a second one, but I can tell by the pink on this one's back it's the same one I saw 3 days ago.

 

You might be surprised at others appearing, they grow pretty fast from so small you can hardly see them to decent, breeding size. I cajoled an LFS into selling me 3 tiny ones ($2 a piece LOL) back in December. I have tons now, including an orange-footed HUGE one that must've come in tiny on a frag cuz the ones I bought were all whitish. The larger ones have all spawned, including the orange one, and now I have babies everywhere.

 

That's awesome!
