Abalone Snail puffing
So I had no idea where to post this, but I thought it was interesting. I was adding some coral today to my 24 gal cube and saw what appears to me an Abalone snail puffing a white liquid up over his head. This snail appeared about 3 months ago (I have had the tank up for over 4 years)! No idea what it really is but he looks to be an Abalone with a brighter yellow color... he sticks mainly to the cracks and holes and unseen when the lights are on.. I would describe him more but he is now nowhere to be seen..
Just wondering if anyone else has seen a snail puffing smoke! |

Could it have been reproduction?
