Ok well I noticed a brown little curly thing about the size of a pin head and it looks like a shell of some short. I tried to take a picture of it but my cell just wont capture it. I have now seen two pop up any ideas??? :?

Stationary? First guess is vermetid snail, or small feather duster.

 

[ReeferMike]

Yes hasnt moved at all. I dont want to sound crude but it looks like small piece of poop all brown and curled upwards. If it is a snail is a pest?

 

[tektite]

Probably a vermetid snail, lol, they can look like that. They can spread fast given enough food, and they spread webs out to catch their food that can irritate corals. If you can its probably best to kill them while you only have a couple.

 

[ReeferMike]

How do I kill them?

 

[ReeferMike]

Also, thanks for the help really appreciate it

 

[tektite]

Easiest way is to plug the end of their shell with superglue or epoxy. No problem, lol, I thought I was the only insomniac up at this time of night

Well I'm kind of an insomniac I am actually in college and I should be studying psych instead of studying Marsh lol
