hey guys! suddenly noticed this bright white thing on my rocks today! anyone know what it is? reef safe? Reminds me of a pill/ potato bug, but it’s white and I haven’t seen any legs or antennae of sorts… fed the tank some frozen and i did see some kinda stick to one end, but again no movement, legs, antennae, etc, so could’ve just landed there… thanks in advance! …then my condy tried to eat my snail!!! luckily I was there with tweezers to save it.. condy was ticked lol what the heck is going on in my tank today! haha happy reefing!

Chiton; they have a snail-like foot under that pill-bug like shell. I haven’t heard of any that aren’t algae-eaters and harmless yet, so I’d say free CUC.
Awesome thank you! …the newbie (ok new to my eyes but has probably been there for months lol) appears to be fitting right in with these goof balls! Lol :)
