Snail ID?

LFS said it was an Aussie Rock Snail. Looks encrusted or like someone glued a frag on it. Moves slow, clumsy as hell, and has tube worms growing on it. Possibly more, but nothing soft. The large tube at the underside had a large bristle worm in it that eventually moved to the rockwork. Keeping them under control with a wrass for now, but can't find any info on this snail. Not sure if the bristle worm was symbiotic or just a hitchhiker.

That Aussie Rock Snail sounds like a weird little character! Those tube worms definitely give it a funky look like someone glued frags on there. I’ve seen bristle worms hitch rides too but usually they keep to themselves unless you’re overfeeding. Wrasses are great for keeping pests in check so
