Hi all,

I have post this at the Corals thread and wish maybe you guys can help me too. If this is a no no, you may please take this off and sorry for double posting.

About 6 months ago I bought this Turbinaria and it was doing fine until the last 2 months. There is this hitchiker creature (in picture id#1)that its tubeshell looks like feather duster worm but never really show its face, I can bearly see its head with little tentacles. It shoots lines of webs (id#2) to my other corals and I suspect that what upsets my turbinaria and my other corals nearby.

Please id this creature and How to get rid of it?

Thanks

Vince

Thats a harmless type of snail that lives in the calcified tube they build. I have quite a few in my tank and don't really mind their presence, they won't hurt anything
