Although it is a bit dificult to make out in the photo his shell is quite flat similar to a limpet, not voluminous like a snail.




This is what he normally looks like working his way along the glass. He has two antennae that are at least as long as his body.

Looks like a powerheadiceps X Stomatella varia

Ok, I'm done, I'll be sleeping if anybody needs me!
