help Hitchiker scutus? reef safe?

[Wishman]

Hi - I purchased a frag from LFS and found a hitchhiker. It looks like a slug with small hard shell. I tried to google and do a search on here. From my best guess it looks like it's a scutus. Can anyone help me confirm? and is it reef safe?

Thanks!

No, it's actually a Stomatella, in the Trochus family. It's a good guy, though, and is reef safe.

Cheers,



Don
