Are theese snails good?

[e1v4n]

I have 3 different snails that I've put in my tank, think they're called nassarius, and turbos and a long shelled one with a long trunk that it cleans/sucks with.

Couple of days back I've seen some small snails and looking tonight i see an armor of them can you please help me indentify them.

 

[Mr Cypher]

those look like sundial snails to me could be wrong though

 

[Mr Cypher]

Hope I'm wrong

look like baby turbos to me. I've only ever had Trochus reproduce in my tank, but maybe that's because I had more of those than Turbos

collonista snails also often get labeled as baby trochus snails. could be a possible ID.

I’m gonna vote for collinista snails as well. Especially if they’re mostly coming out at night. They’re good CUC IMO.

what are theese guys known for?

 

[damsels are not mean]

Most likely collonista snails. Harmless but quite prolific.

They eat zoanthids.

Sorry for the late reply, but yes, likely on a frag or in your live rock, if you used live rock. They’re not going to eat any of your corals though. It’s the sundial snails that are pests to zoas so you should be good! I like these guys because they really get into all the nooks and crannies since they’re so small.

No worries I got lots of them, they are hiding in the shade at night time and my 5 different kind of zoa's are growing like never before.. hope they get to a good number and don't take over everything..

Hopefully they aren't Sundial Snails, they will eat up your Zoas if they are Sundials.
