Tiny snails invasion

[Ncfishlover]

Hundreds if not a thousand of these tiny snails all over. Can anyone tell me what they are and good or bad? They are maybe the size of my pinky nail or smaller. I do have a small amount of gha, but phosphates are .04 and running gfo and carbon.

I may be wrong, but they kinda look like baby Cerith snails. Do you have any adult cerith snails in the tank?

I do believe when i stocked my cuc I had some in the mix. Like 20 little ones from live aquaria. Also this is in a 72g tank should have mentioned I guess.

@ReefSquad, do these look like baby Cerith snails, or are they something else?

I just looked at one in my tank and that is either a Cerith snail or an impostor, LOL!!!

Agree. Hard to tell from the pic.
Can you put this snail in a clean container and make better pic for an ID?

Wow that's a lot of snails. I've recently had my trochus spawn and there are tiny little babies all over the place
