Anyone know what this dark thing on the upper right is? I thought at first it was a snail, but no. It has not moved for two weeks, but has gotten about twice as big. I going to take it off tomorrow and see if I can get a better pic. It seems to be kinda a outward curl and I see a head or fan or something (its very small) move when a pod or something steps on it or by.

Thanks Renee
I found this article
Snails That Worm Their Way Into Tanks by Ronald L. Shimek, Ph.D. - Reefkeeping.com (http://reefkeeping.com/issues/2005-01/rs/index.php)
It is an interesting article unfortunately mine sounds like Spiroglyphus annulatus. Possibly becoming plague like. Great. Hope there is no others. It'll be out tomorrow.
