 Sundial Snail /Heliacus areola Gmelin I hope this is not what is in my tank ZoaID.com! :: The definitive repository for named Zoanthids! Melevsreef.com - Sundial Snail This is what melevsreef has to say This tiny snail is a predator of zoanthids, and may be tough to see in your tank. Watch your zoos closely at night for this Sundial Snail, and if you discover one be quick to remove it. For the next few days & weeks, keep watching when the zoos are closed up, in case any baby pyramid snails appear Not reef-safe what do you think?  My zoo's seem fine this was 3 day ago and thay look the same  what ever thease things are they seem to be eating algae on the glass and rocks

| Re: Sundial Snail /Heliacus areola Gmelin I apologize but from the picture it doesn't look like a sundial snail to me. The sundial snail is more flat and more like a swirl to the design. Sundials are also Tan to beige with brown markings. I think you don't have to worry about that snail, however keep a watch on him.
