critter ID

[don954]

I recently got some live rock with some critters on it, here are the snails that I've found so far:

snail one

snail two

I cant figure out what these guys are, you input would be appreciated.

I also have some small black crabs about the size of an eraser head. Anyone know of a good site with photo IDs of hitch hikers?

Hopefully this will be of use to you.

I should mention these are aqua-cultured rocks on the Atlantic side of the Florida coast, so these critters are locals...

first one is a zebra nerite.

Other one maybe astrea sp.

The first one is a true nerite (Nerita species), but not one of the species usually called a Zebra Nerite (typically Neritina species). It's a nice guy, but may spend a lot of time on the glass above the water line. The second snail is one of the smaller Nassarius species, which should also be reef safe. I'd need some additional views to ID it to the species level.

Cheers,
