Thanks, that was quick. Other discussions say to get rid of them, the slime net they use for feeding smothers coral and restricts growth.

They can aggitate corals. If you get annoyed by him a pair of tweezers are their worst enemies.. or so I heard. They reproduce based on the ammount of food avalible too.. less food means less snails.

As long as it isn't really close to corals, just leave the li'l thing alone.
