I call him Kong

So I have this snail that pretty much has no fear. Not even of me. I can pick him up and he won't even go in his shell. Here is a pic of him next to a 4" Clam. I figure I only need about 3 snails his size for my 120 Tank. Saves on buying snails

WOW...A snail like that would rearrange everything....I couldn't handle the stress but pretty cool though.

Yeah, he can push some thing if he wants. But he hasn't rearranged a single thing yet. Unlike my Astreas that move everything.

I had a Mexican Turbo that was as big or bigger than that. He did his job, but had to go. I traded him for a few smaller snails at my LFS. I really liked him, but he was too much of a bulldozer. Plus, he would go right over baby mushrooms, knock over frags. I rest easier now that he's gone.
