I read about these snails a few months ago on here but am unable to find the thread nor remember what they are called. I am however blessed with an infestation that I need help with. You cannot see there bodies only the multiple strands of thread like feeder tentacles that protrude out up to an inch from the snails center. I have some of them in my sand bed as well as in crevices of my rock work. This particular habitat is a 29 gallon biocube that houses soft corals, 2 clowns, 1 strawberry pseudo, 1 lawnmower blenny, 1 yellow tail damsel, and one cleaner shrimp. Hermits and snails as well of course. I prefer to treat/ address issues in as natural of manner as possible and figure that there must be a natural predator of these creatures such as perhaps an arrow crab, particular type of coral safe wrasse, particular type of snail or even a particular type of hermit crab? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
