Scientific name: Aperiovula
Aperiovula is a genus of small to medium-sized predatory sea snails, belonging to the family Ovulidae. These snails are known for their elongated, often colorful shells and their association with soft corals or gorgonians, which they mimic and on which they feed. They are popular among reef aquarium hobbyists for their unique appearance and behavior. Aperiovula species are generally peaceful and can be kept with a variety of tank mates, but they require a well-established aquarium with suitable coral hosts to thrive.
