On Zoas

colonista or such, harmless I think.

Get rid of them as they look like Sundial snails that feed on Zoanthids! I could be wrong but these kind of snails are not the standard snails sold at your local pet shop.

Too be on the safe side I would get rid of any Snail that you didn't actually buy.

Yes they are collonistas. I have them also. Once the food source runs out they die off.
