that_one_brodie Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 One of my turbo snails has a strange hitch hiker on its back. It looks like another shell. At first I thought it was one of the baby snails on it's back just chilling. But then I saw what was in the snail and got concerned. The flesh did not look like the other snails, it was black. And it would occasionally stick out and poke around. I have no idea what this could be and researching hasn't helped me either. Would really appreciate some help. Here is a video of the hitchhiker: Quote Link to comment

that_one_brodie Posted June 5, 2019 Author Share Posted June 5, 2019 That's good to hear. Will do more research on limpets! 1 Quote Link to comment
