This looks like an anthelia coral (is a soft coral)

No idea what the top snail is but the one at the bottom is a bumblebee snail, awesome little guy to have but some people have reported that they eat zoas:

Have absolutely no idea what this is, please describe and get a clearer pic:

This looks like a turbo snail but I could be mistaken:

Thanks @tekkengal

Looks similar to a cowie snail turns white when touched ..
Read @RiaanP sticky on them but wasnt sure ..
Guy only sent me that pic ill ask for more

I guess it used to be a bumble bee then coz now a hermit crab has taken residency ..

The coral is surrounded by GHA n some maroon strands so will i have to remove the GHA physically and would it affect the coral

Top snail looks like Turbo coronatus. If its local. Max size is about the size of a golf ball. Vegetarian.

Brown one looks like a cowrie. What did the guy used to take this picture? A Potato?

And a lot of green algae you do not want.

 

[Roxx]

I think even the potato was sub grade lol

Will both snails be safe for corals

 

[RiaanP]

yeah. Depending on the Cowrie species.

But take better pictures. If local the cowrie looks like a Caputserpensis.

Ill visit him and take a few pics thanks @RiaanP
