    snail ID

    Yeah, the "Nerite" on the Pet Solutions site is a Tegula species, as is yours, Phoenix, but it may or may not be the same species. There are about 5...

    whats this snaik Hitcher??

    It's a chiton alright, and should be a nice algae grazer (although they may graze on coralline). It looks like one of the color forms of Lucilina...

    G or B snail??

    G or B snail??

    Tegula funebralis They are good algae eaters, but since they are temperate snails they may no be very long-lived in tropical tanks. Cheers,...

    pearl cowrie

    Yup, that's a Tiger Cowry, Cypraea tigris. They are fairly large (but yours won't grow any larger than it is now) and can tend to be bulldozers, but...

    pearl cowrie

    I think I'd keep it. While no cowry is absolutely reef safe, most of them are relatively harmless. I suggest steering away from the larger species,...

    Probably a coral predator, aeolid nudibranch as Chuck says. I don't know of any aeolids that eat sponges, but there might be some. Cheers, Don

    Anemone and Sea Hare or Nudi?

    Hi Isurus, I can't ID your anemone, but the sea slug is an Elysia species. It's an algae-eating sacoglossan, and should be fine in your tank. I...

    Nudribranch eating my zoos?

    It's a nudibranch, but not in the same family as the normal zoa-eating nudis. It's either a bornellid, a dendronotid, or tritonid. Whichever it is,...
