Pretty Pink Snail

[ptychoptera]

Care to ID this one Don? Size around 1cm.

Sure, that's Bullina lineata, widespread but not very common anywhere. It eats little cirratulid polychaetes that it finds while it's plowing sand. Neat shell.

Cheers,


Don

I forgot to mention, it only eats ROGUE polychaetes, and leaves the nice ones to frolic in the sand and mud....

95% would be better longterm... or how about glacial acetic acid... or formalin...
