The little snail that could, until the Hermit Crab came along

in #scuba8 years ago (edited)

I was scuba diving at the Blue Heron bridge in Rivera Beach, FL a few days ago, and I happened to find one of the most beautiful moon snails I'd ever seen. So I started filming it and watching it move along the bottom.. until this incredible looking hermit crab came in and wiped him out, then just kept on going.. It must be seen to be believed.

p.s. I checked on the snail later, and he was just fine. He had went into his shell as he was nailed, and then came back out later.
