Hi Dr. Ron,
Just wanted you to know that we thoroughly enjoyed your talk Friday night at MASLAC. Of course, Saturday while purusing the LFS we saw two different critters we were not sure about and wished we could ask you. Then tonight I log on and find this GREAT forum has been added!! Thank you so much for taking the time to do this.
The first critter we saw was a small (1/4") snail with a light pink foot. The employees did not know much about them except that they called them pink cone snails and that they came from the warm waters in Mexico.
The second critter was a really cute eel they called a spagetti or garden eel. He lives in the sand bed but the LFS owner was not sure if he would be a good, beneficial critter to have in a live sand bed or if he would burrow too deeply and stir up the bottom layer of the sand bed. He was about 12" long and 1/16"-1/8" wide and stuck his head up out of the sand to look around.
I apologize for not having the proper names, but that is all the info we could get.
We are so looking forward to hearing you speak in April at WMC. Thank you in advance for your time and response.
