    When you say gooed, is that the mucus from the flatworm? I have a suspicion that I may have one because I loose snails at a pretty good rate. I also lost a small urchin recently that had a mucous coating over it.

    Well he's been there for some time I image it was mucus that turned bugery consistency ( sr for the gross reference lol). When I flush him out he released alot of mucus probably 2-3 tablespoons . I imagine this it the substance used by the little bugger to make the substance.
