Hi all!
I recently found one of these sort of snail or something in my tank. Dunno what it is! Anyone know? It mostly comes out at night. I saw a big one and then 1 week later, I had like 40-50 of these babies crawling around my tank! I guess it spawned or something without me knowing! Would most appreciate anyone letting me know if it's good or bad for a reef tank! It looks harmless cuz I see them grazing on the glass and live rocks for algae.

Thanks reefwars! Do you know if it is good or bad for a reef tank?

[reefwars]

IMO they are bad only for the reason they breed easily, they are however harmless in a reef:)

I had a few in my tank and found they were good algae grazers. Mind you I had a big spaghetti worm out break so I cut back feeding and haven't seen one in a few months.

They like to come out at night.
I have a few myself and they are harmless, eat algae and leftover food. So good snail in my opinion.

I used to have a ton of them. Then I bought a green corus wrasse. Now I have none.
