Stomatella snail very good to have in your tank. I need to find someone around me with some I only have one but they breed fast in the right environment. Used to have a lot but switched tanks and rocks and lost most of them :(

yes they do. I have quite a few. Never can remember their name thou. You must be able to find these guys locally. You might have to request your LFS to get them.

Can you take it out and get a better picture? Are there gills near the anus or no? Could be Pseudoceros sapphrinus with out the outer band but I am very skeptical. Could also be Scutus Unguis which is no good so get it out and try to get a better pic. One of the underside as well.

Sorry, already dipped the coral in revive and scraped this thing off, it didn't come out in one piece, it was like fleshy and did a lot of damage to the bone...

Oh, Btw, it didn't move a lot, already checked both of the animals you mentioned, I don't think it was any of those, I thought it was a sponge so left it there for 5 months, it shrink a little when touched, I really appreciate your help

Hes long gone, he was the size of the president on a quarter. His claws looked more like an anonome crab

It's simply an encrusting (liver) sponge over a long dead head of Euphyllia.

Was attached to the glass and not my coral so I'm HOPING it's a good guy and he can go back in.

Cucumber perhaps? A yellow one that small would worry me if you have any powerheads it could crawl into and get blended...

Can anyone identify this snail I found on my refuge? It has been long destroyed but just for curiosity sake. Thanks in advance

Helping a buddy clean his tank up and this caught my eye floating around. Looks like an egg sack maybe? At first I thought flatworm but it's pretty round
