Is this "normal"?

Ok, I got a snail a new snail and I noticed that it came with two little hitch hikers. Now I've learned that not all hitch hikers are good, so I thought I would post here and see if they are something I should attempt to remove, or if I should just leave them as they are.

Yes, they are both alive.


....So, what do you think?

Mine's doing well too. I've had it a year now and it's survived a mishap in my tank (that killed the clam it's attached too) and a tank move. Mine's blue/green.

Thanks for the comments guys. I knew they were clams but wasn't sure if them being attached to the shell of the snail was something worth worrying about or not. Its kind of neat seeing them piggy back on the shell of the snail, lol. I guess i'll enjoy the three critters while they're around!
