Coral eating snail??

[dgasmd]

This is the third of these snails I find in my tank in the last 3-4 months. I found it attached to an acro that now looks like it had pieces of its base eaten away. I know what you are thinking and it is no AEFW. The other 2 I found sitting on a torch and a hammer that were nearly closed up since it parked itself in them. After removal, those two corals seem to be coming back pretty well. This third one was just removed today.

Thanks so much. I am glad I removed the little bastards. But, if I saw and removed 3 of them, I know there must be much more. Thanks again for the response.
