Do you have clams? Can you look underneath them if you do....I'm just hoping they're not...any from...

Pyrgiscus spp., Turbonilla spp., and Tathrella spp.

I'm not too sure on positive ID..

Best,

I thought the same as Elmo. Some type of Pyramidellidae snail. You should also check your other snails to see if any of them have this little snail attached to it.

this is in the pod center... not my tank..

i had a pyamid snail out brake about 6 months ago.. but since have destroyed them with the quickness....

what a task that was...

i had to removed snail by snail picking them off till i broke the cylce I started finding like a bunch on one snail

till i found one toruchus with like 30 of them on it... i removed them all and i have only cought a few every now and then... I still keep my eyes out for them...

but this snail is in the new qt/ pod center... i just added some new rock 2 it a week ago or so... so i figure thats where its from... theres only one cierth in there... and that evil zoo eating snail...
