I wish I could get a picture for y'all, but all I've got is a webcam and a cell phone, and neither will get the fine detail I'm seeing.
I'm looking at the big turbo snail in my tank and seeing two...things...on its shell. Each one appears as a pair of antenna- or tentacle-looking things that're clear or white, thinner than a hair, and less than a quarter inch long. Each pair forms a V-shape, and the ends curl under in a very loose spiral.
I would normally assume it was just detritus that stuck to the shell, but there's two of these pairs in two different places on the shell, and they're too...perfect, y'know? Too symmetical to be an accident.
No idea how long they've been there...I had the snail for-bloody-ever, and never paid too much attention to him until now.
Any idea what they might be, and whether or not I should be worried?
