Snail in the sump

[SnoopNL]

Found a snail I didn't buy in the DT ( getting the hang of the acronyms ! )

I moved it to the sump, but I'm curious to what it is.

Anybody got an ID for me ?

Looks like a turbo snail to me...

 

[SnoopNL]

Thanks. The turbos I always had, had a hard foot.

Or am I mistaken now?

It also looks like it could be a Nerite Snail. Regardless, I'm 99% certain that there are no predatory bad Snails with that shaped shell. I'm also 99% certain that all the Snails with that shape of a shell are mostly Herbivores.

Don't look at 99% as good gambling odds with me though, as I was 99% certain that JJ Abrams wasn't going to be directing the new Star Wars movie and that the Browns were going to the Super Bowl in 1995.

Hehe and with this 'tank of doom' I usually have the luck of finding myself in that one percent.

I'm at 98% agreement with Snid, meaning that I am also 99% certain that there are no predatory bad Snails with that shaped shell, but I was 99% certain it was going to be the Green Bay Packers in '95.

I'd place it back in the DT and keep 1% of an eye on it.

Hahaha!

So the hard closing plate vs not having one turbos ?
Anybody got any idea on that ?
