Great link Tony!
Somehow I like mine more now that I know it is a freakish snail and not just a plain old worm .

Well I've battled the snails for about a week and have had great success. I used some angled hymostats from the gool ol' tackle box and crushed them at the base. I think I'm down to 1 or 2 now. All I know is my tank no longer looks like spiderman went on a rampage in there.
