A note

[edit]

This is FerRacimo, yesterday i created this page, but have just erased it. I realised an article on "snailfish" already existed and referred to the same subject as this one.

I reinstated the page as an article rather than a redirect. I placed a hatnote leading to the fish article snailfish, since that species of fish is also confusingly sometimes known as a "sea snail". Invertzoo (talk) 13:53, 8 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The thing is that there are literally tens of thousands of different kinds of sea snails. Other than the fact that they all live in saltwater environments, they vary enormously in the details of their lives. Some live on rocks; other live buried in sand. They all eat different things: some are predators, some are scavengers, many are herbivorous, some are parasitic. Different species have different enemies; many look very different one from another; some species are endangered, but some are not; they all reproduce, but different groups have very different methods of reproduction; some that live on coral reefs are important to the reef; and so on, it is really impossible to generalize.
