I would say Collonista, here's my support; figure 10, nano-reef, and if you feel like reading. Enjoy!

They are not sun dial snails, they are much more obvious than that.

definitely colonistas....damn....you have a boatload too. Bring some of those guys to a meeting sometime....I'd love to repopulate my tank with those guys
Sun dials are very round and flat like a coin.

ok can probably round up enough for 3 people ....everyone else will have to be on the next list after they have babies
now how do i collect them the night before and keep them isolated and alive till the next day? ....any ideas?

 

[Mantid]

Put them in a bucket a little LR.

or just a piece of tupperware with mesh over it so they can't escape in your main tank.

is that screen mesh safe to put in the tank?

 

[Zooid]

I think home depot carrys some plastic mesh......if not, I get mesh from smallparts.com. Quick shipping

Ah, I didnt know you wanted to keep them in your tank.

I keep one of these in my tank just for that very reason:

The small ones are very cheap at petco/smart.

the only reason i would keep them in the tank is too help them survive overnight and how ever long the meet is

You keep a hamster in your tank?
