jasonv6974 Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 I believe it is some kind of snaill, about an inch long i found snooping around my xenia's. Not really sure what it is / or safe... thanks. Quote
spayne Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 I'm not entirely sure what it is... but whenever in doubt, it's best just to take it out. Hopefully someone else will be able to identify it for you. Quote
R-3 Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 Looks like a stomatella to me. They breed like crazy in most peoples tanks. They are okay. Later Ryan Quote
andy Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 Yup, looks like a stomatella to me too. It moves much faster than it looks like it should be able to, right? Quote
siskiou Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 Definitely stomatella! I love these little snails! The breed in the tank, and keep the rock nice and clean. Quote
jasonv6974 Posted December 14, 2006 Author Posted December 14, 2006 Yeah this little bugger took off like a bat outa hell when he noticed that i saw him, i didn't think snails could move like that but i guess i was wrong. Quote
impur Posted December 15, 2006 Posted December 15, 2006 Yep, stomatella. Good guys. Wish i had some. Quote
jasonv6974 Posted December 15, 2006 Author Posted December 15, 2006 I also had a question on another type of snail that i saw this afternoon ill have to wait till he comes back out again to grab a pic, he looked pretty cool. Is it common to have these different types of snails populating, even though i have only introduced turbo snails? Quote

siskiou Posted December 16, 2006 Posted December 16, 2006 Wow! It can grow to over 12cm length? That's quite the snail/limpet! Quote
