yes it was an upside down nerite snail shell.

took out the shell and nothing was in it. I have about 10 or so shells on the substrate so I guess they could be in any of them... just for my information, if you know, what are they trying to catch? what is their diet? and if they do "catch" something, how do they reach it if they are...

Would this snail be able to carpet my entire substrate? Would these types of snails be a common hitchhiker since I have not purchased any? Also the shells in the pic were supposed to be empty since I got them from my LFS. I asked them about purchasing some empty ones just for aesthetics and...

Was doing a PWC and noticed that my entire substrate is carpeted by a thin layer of what I can best describe as looking like "spider web" looking strings. I just noticed them since the lower level of water in my tank during my PWC has caused some stronger flow near the bottom and I can see the...

just started a tank and am concerned about emerald not getting enough to eat. I have 2 clowns, a bangaii cardinal, and 3 blue/chromis who are straight vultures! between the 3 chromis, they do not let any food get out of their grasp (leaving barely enough for my other 3 guys). I don't have...

Looking to see if someone can help me with this! It is growing off of my cured Pukani live rock which is in a FOWLR 46 gallon bow front. The pic is not the best I know... it is about 3/4 inch long, purple, and fuzzy. It is attached at a central point with what looks to be around 6 "fingers"...
