I woke up last night and decided to look at the tank with flashlight and I notice that most of the rock is cover by small snails. please identify and tell me if they are good or not. they only come out at night tho never even notice before.

I dont think I have any turbo before but I think they came as hitch hikers.

they are fine easy money if you keep them growing while they grow your tank will be cleaner Once they spawn they do it like clock work
