Sorry no pics....Too small....
But anyhelp would be usefull...
Anyways I found at least 3 snails that are about 1/4" long look almost like a nassarius snail yet they have black and white bands around the shell....Any idea? It dosnt look like a sundial snail. They must have came on my live rock because I have not added anything like that into my tank.... The rock was drop shipped from Bali.
Thanks guys!

Ya, they look like the bumble bee snail the most. But im still not sure that them as the shell and spirals are correct but the white band is snow white not yellowish color.
