Anyone know what this is? the majority (about 80%) of the tips on my pink bird's nest were all bleached. So I took it out, did a FW dip on it, and nothing came off. I looked a little closer, and found this guy attatched to one of the main branches.

Tips of 12" tweezers shown for size refference

Maybe a limpit snail? Lets see the top of the shell.

I didn't know you could freshwater dip sps. How did it respond to the dip?

Freshwater dip is very hard on acros and cause a much higher mortality rate than a dip would.

huh, I was told that a FW dip would not harm them...good to know that I shouldn't do that in the future

As far as the top of the shell, the only pics I took before I flushed it are posted above...Any Ideas??
