A few weeks ago I looked in my Refugium and I found a snail in there. I have never placed a snail in there prior. So I just assumed he either manage to make the long journey from my DT or grew in the sump. Last night I was looking at my tank and found these little guys. What are these? Could this explain the rogue snail in sump? I was going to post last night, but I had a video. Video is still pending on YouTube. Will post video when available.

More snails..
babies... Snails do readily reproduce in aquariums..

Many snails are hermaphrodites so they can make more all by themselves..

It looks like you might have vermetid snails (down in the lower left corner of the 2nd pic). The ones that look like a small coil and after a few winds they turn away from the rock.

The white thing in the middle looks like it might be a sponge, but that's really a guess based on the photo.

Snails, baby snails, and vermetid snails.
