Snail ID please

Oliver8223 · Jun 16, 2019

Hi guys I’m new to the forum. This snail was in one of the zoas that I bought today. Noticed it when I was doing the coral dip. From the search I did looks like maybe a nerite snail. I’m new to the saltwater scene and not familiar with all the critters yet. Thanks in advance.

Get rid of it! It is a Sundial snail... They are predatory snails and will kill Zoanthids and Palythoas!
Make sure there aren’t any more

Thank you. It was stuck pretty good I had to use something to pull it off of the zoa. I kept it on the container I did the coral dip on and hasn’t been in the tank. I didn’t see anymore but will keep a watch for any others.
