evilknieval69 Posted June 3, 2006 Report Share Posted June 3, 2006 ok Is it actually a slug as in moving around or just a white 'mass' that looks like a slug? It could posibly be a snail that came in on the plants and looks like a slug or maybe even a snail missing the shell :-? :-? Just a few 'posibilities' Rogan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan Posted June 3, 2006 Report Share Posted June 3, 2006 They sound like they may be planarians or maybe leeches. Alan 104 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
