Worm in a shell

Laura and Jim will be hosting the May meeting this Saturday the 12th and it will be the usual of food, drinks, raffle and fun.
 
Doors will be open at 6:00 pm for social talk and the meeting will start at 7:00.  Parking gets a little tight and the city says you can't park on 4th but there is a parking lot a block away.   Meeting is usually held in the backyard so feel free to bring your favorite lawn chair, weather permitting of course.

If you need address/directions, contact a club member.

Best if you park at Mini Mall (where the spaghetti establishment use to be)
 
You will get to see his new frag tank set up in the making.
 
Hope to see you there!

Found something new tonite.  Was flipping over some turbos in the tank, and when I flipped this one over, there were two brissle worms in the shell and wrapped around the snail body that was in it.  I quickly pulled it out, figuring this was the easiest worm removal I had ever done.  Unfortunately, Angela is still in Phoenix with the camera so I couldn't get a shot, but I grabbed the two worms and pulled then out of the shell and at least half of the length of each one was wrapped up in the shell.  I would guess that they were 1-2" long each, and were light grey in color.  Has anyone heard of worms attacking and eating snails?
