lanman March 4, 2007 Share March 4, 2007 I have a new critter in my tank. He acts like a snail - but he looks more like a slug;with a half-shell on his back. Abalone baby? It is about 1/2-inch long.

Yeah - that's him! Maybe I should catch him, and put him in the refugium where my hermits and fire shrimp can't get him. Thanks!! bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mosheikh March 5, 2007 Share March 5, 2007 Before noticing many of these in my tank, I had only like 5 of them. But I noticed one of the Stomatella Varia releasing eggs. After 3 weeks, I started to see small babies. Now I have soo many of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
