Polyp eating snail

Post by snoopdog »

Nothing extra special but since I had these 6 months ago and this was such a clear picture I thought I would share. Notice how the end of the snail has a cone shaped cover, that is this snails trademark. You will rarely see it leave a patch of polyps and is normally in the middle of the colony where it can hide for safety.
