Can someone ID this for me? At first I thought it was an astrea snail without it's shell (crab stole one). But I found out astrea snails cannot go out of thier shells.

Thanks for the Info!

that's a Stomatella Snail. They are Reef-Safe grazers.

Fabulous picture of it too, I've never seen a stomatella that large before (because of picture size)! :)

Thanks a bunch for letting me know what it is!

As for the pictures... I'm still have a lot to learn, but aquarium photography is something I defintely want to start doing more of.

BTW... i have another creature I'd like to identify... it is at this thread...
