they are like white flowers and if you go close as if to touch her they immediately go into the snails shell i have no clue where are my heavy hitters at to tell me what this is? huma elude beengirl someone please i need to know if this is bad cause if it is i want it out of my dt
 
It's hard for me to tell from the side view cuz I'm on my phone. But if it retracts, it could be apitasia. Personally, I would take the snail out, scrape it off the shell, wipe off the shell with damp cloth to make sure you got all the tiny pieces and then put the snail back. It won't hurt the snail as long as you don't have him out for an extended time.
