Another "What's This?" Hot Pink Slug

Anyone have any idea? Friend or foe?

Here they are inside the suction cup of a nori clip. They are about 2mm long and 1mm wide. Hot pink with white markings on their sides, two small black eyes.

Having eyes is throwing me way off as I at first thought of flatworms but they are most likely a sea slug species, which if they are, they should have an obvious mouth much like a snails....I think..lol

Thanks for the reply. They are too small to see the mouth.
Another bit of info is that they move pretty fast for such little guys, with no visible signs of locomotion, just like a slug.
 
I've had the standard planaria flatworms before, but these look nothing like them. They are tube shaped, rather than flat. If they are flatworms, though, I'd consider that relatively good news, as flatworms are a "nuisance" vs. "predator/pest"
