Thanks guys. I was hoping it was harmless.

We've had this mushroom in our saltwater tank for some time now and it was doing really well. It was about 1.5-2 times the size it is now. I'm wondering if this thing that is growing next to it is to blame for it declining a bit. It retracts completely into the "neck"??? (for lack of better...

Ahhhhh.....yup. looked on google And that is exactly what they look like. Thanks. It's so much easier to look up something when u have a name for it haha. Tried looking up snail hitchhiker but there are quite a few to go through and was abut overwhelming. Thanks again
