Title: Snail ID
Post by: SweetReefOH on December 09, 2019, 17:03:30

Anyone know what this is & if it’s reef safe? It’s body is in 4 segments and when I grabbed him, he curled to a ball. The outside is a shell. Under side resembles a Stomatella

Found it... Chiton
400 million year old critter. I have no clue how he got in the tank. He was obviously microscopic & dip resistant. Just glad he’s safe.
