they don't go on rocks and eat alge they sift through the sand and pick out detritus/scroung the sandbed...

i have a vid of it! i'll upload it now.....i doubt i'll see it above sand again ....first time i've seen it in 3 weeks ....i can't believe how big it got.....

it was stuck to the glass for a lil bit last night and the slug bit was about 2inch when it streched out but then it went back down quick.

its quite fast! my dads already named it erney....but he doens't have a milkcart

BIGg- i hear ya matey. have you got any info on that type of snail? or any pics i can use to compare?

It's a Tonga variety Nassarius snail. Perfectly reef safe. I have several in my tank.
