			 Stomatellas are a type of snail. 
		
	
		
		
		
		
			
		
		
		
		
	
		
		
	
	
	I had a Peppermint shrimp that ate all my Stomatellas. I sure would like to have them back in my tank. They are awesome algae eaters.  |

			 I see them doing that all the time in my tank... I think my filtration has improved as I dont seem to get as many little ones anymore. Their spawning also makes for good coral food too.
