ID This Snail.

I thought at first perhaps a pyramid snail, but I have never had a clam in this tank. The tank nearly 1 year old and this is the only snail I have seen like this in the tank.

It sure looks like a pyramid snail to me. It could be the other similar looking snail in the link below to though. You don't necessarily have to have a clam for these things to get into your tank. I've found them hitchhiking a ride in on the underside of various snails before.

Nah, it's a harmless rissoid. Probably Zebina isolata.

If not, it's one of the related Zebina or Rissoina species.

Cheers,
