i was at the gym tonight topping off and feeding, and i noticed a large black snail, shaped somewhat like a whelk, munching on either a dead porcelain crab, or the molting of a porcelain crab.
the snail was mostly black, with a splash of white on it's shell. not much, maybe about 15% white. it had a long feeler/tentacle/snout type thing very similar to nassarius snails. it's body was also black, as was it's "snout" thing.
anyone have any ideas, before i snap a pic?
btw- this snail, and a few other, smaller, whelk-like snails must have come off of the rock. (kaelini).
