Ive notcied these slug like creatures that appear to be turbos without their shells. Some very small, but a few fairly large. What is it.

Does anyone have that link to the hitchhiker id thread?

Stomatella do breed in tanks, and get to around an inch long. Can you describe your tank a bit, filtration, livestock, etc.
 
i just moved about 40 pounds of tonga out of a CAD 25 into a new 120 Oceanic tech. Obviously it began in the 25. The tank had 25 pounds og carib live sand and 10 pound sof rubble in the overflow box. I added some cheato and pods into the fuge once. Some lps, mated clowns, and a goby. I only stated that tank in june before deciding to trade up.

At first i noticed one about 1 inch long, thought it was a turbo withouts the shell. Same footprint, antennas. Then I noticed some tiny ones all over the old rock in the new tank.

Pretty cool. Obviously some spawning going on. They munch on the algae on both rock and glass.
