Snail ID
 

Saw this very very tiny snail on my glass. Anyone knows what sort of snail this one is?

Kinda looks like a harmless Collinista

Does it look like the one pictured below ?
If so, it's an algae eater

My tank has dozens of small ones right now - about 2-3mm

By the way, your finger looks pretty bleached - you'd better check your lighting and nutrients :silly:

Here's a great link you may want to save

Yah it looks like the image you have attached but I am guessing mine is a baby and doesn't have such a well formed shell. As soon as I saw it, I took it out (I get very concerned with things that are not introduced by me in the tank). I am thinking whether I should put it back in.

Haha lighting and nutrients seems fine in my tank. That's the effect of flash and winter I guess. Being a brown person, I become bleached during winter :mrgreen: :lol:

Thanks for the ID :D

Awesome! Thanks :D

You are very welcome

If you don't mind the look of that snail, leave it in your tank
It's population should go up and down with your tank's nutrient levels

Alright. I am putting it back in :D

Released :D

And as soon as it hit the water, one of my always-hungry clowns took it in the mouth and spit out. Not sure whether it is alive to see another day!

It also may be a Stomatella, Check MarkoD's thread out. He got a great picture of a adult specimen.

Yah saw that few days ago. As long as its not a threat to my zoas, I got nothing to worry about.

Thanks for the another possible ID :D
