Hey guys have something growing on my snail and has been getting bigger as time passes looks like another snail has black tenicales that poke out once and a while just wondering what it is and if it’s good or bad

It is hard to tell with distortion from the jar and the accumulation of algae(?) on the shell..But it almost appears that you have a Vermetid snail, judging by the tube and your description. Seal up the opening of the tube with crazy glue. They can be bad news and they reproduce quickly.

I ended up picking it off which was very hard and scraped the area with a razor blade figures crossed I also just noticed something on my other snail like two small anemone looking things and with a fish swims by they close very quick. Hope it’s not aptasia

Those are pests that will invade the reef

I have heard Bumble Bee snails can be used as control if they are introduced early enough. Has anyone had any luck using them?
