Is this a collonista snail?

My Biocube 32 had been running for five/six days, and I just saw this on a piece of (previously) dry rock.

Yep.

Good stuff. One hitchhiked into my t and so I don’t need a cuc anymore.

Really? I haven't even had an algae bloom yet, do you think they'll make it until my tank cycles?

They’re pretty hardy, yea they’ll can probably survive.

Cool! That's great to know, i'd love to get a snail clean up crew without actually having to buy any.

Every time I try to put some snails in there they die of starvation. I think now I have just one giant astrea snail left. Rock is pretty much algaeless. That said my tank is mature enough that my phos is 0.02 even without running carbon or purigen. I do have an ac50 converted fuge with a red grow light.

I have been told that adding too many CuC member at the same time isn't a good idea, once my tank is cycle and iv'e gotten a significant algae bloom i'll probably just add a few and see how it goes.
