JR-Tanked150 May 22, 2014 Share May 22, 2014 Found this in our QT today and very curious to find out what it is. Seems to be the only one in there but we're still currently looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kkozak81 May 22, 2014 Share May 22, 2014 Looks like a sea slug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JR-Tanked150 May 22, 2014 Author Share May 22, 2014 We are hoping it is a good critter and not a bad one. All of our corals are dipped before we put them in QT for several weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squishie89 May 22, 2014 Share May 22, 2014 I have some red sea slugs very similar shape to yours. I have no idea how they got in or what they do or eat, but so far I have not seen them causing any problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kkozak81 May 22, 2014 Share May 22, 2014 I don't know too much about them but the pic you posted looks more like one that just eat algae. But again I don't know much about them so take it with a grain of salt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JR-Tanked150 May 23, 2014 Author Share May 23, 2014 Well I decided to put him back in the tank and will be watching closely to everything. Hopefully he is an algae eater. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wade May 23, 2014 Share May 23, 2014 (edited) Looks like it might be a stomatella (with big eye stalks), hard to tell. Does it look or feel like it has a shell inside? Edited May 23, 2014 by wade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JR-Tanked150 May 23, 2014 Author Share May 23, 2014 No, shell that I can tell. It is red and has 2 antennas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
