I got a whole bunch of the black nudibraches in my tank, they seem to multiply quite rapidly. Its the grey one behind it that I need the ID on.

Sorry about the pic, the camera picked the wrong one to focus on.

Danny,

If it has a tiny "cap" of a shell, it's a stomatella snail. The other way to tell is that Stomatellas are Ferraris (of snails) & can really move. Breed like rabbits too. (Wow, got in a metaphor & a simile in one posting - I need a vacation)

That must be them because they really motor around.
