Hey everyone. I found this little buddy on the side of my tank a few days ago. He moves pretty fast when he wants to (he moved as far as four feet in one hour!) and he is bewildering me! I have a couple of pictures but you really can't see any specific's so I will name them instead. It moves like a slug or snail would but you can see, it does not have a shell. It is pretty flat, about 1mm, and it has a line running through it that it uses to propel itself across the glass! It appears to be a really simple creature. Is he harmful and should I get rid of it?
The pictures are horrible I know, I need to take my camera in because it's been really fuzzy lately.
Also on a piece of live rock I've noticed a weird thing growing on it over the past two months. It has only gotten bigger but it is stationary and can't move. It is about a 1cm across when it is open and it never closes unless I touch it with something and then it closes up completely for a few minutes. I also have really bad pictures of it. It has a green center with a white ring around the outside and it has dozens of tiny purple tentacles extending from the center of it to about 2-3mm out from it. Is it aptasia? It doesn't have a hard tube, it is just growing on the live rock.
Any help is appreciated! Thanks.
