This little guy, have seen 2-3 of them now float around the tank then attach themselves randomly on glass i9n different areas. Looks like a snail without a shell, has two little antennas and moves like a snail/caterpillar. Just trying to find out if they are harmful or anything of the sort, thank you in advance.

If that's the dorsum of the thing you're talking about in the middle of the pic, it looks to be an Elysia species, one of the sacoglossan slugs that feeds on algae. It won't hurt anything in your tank.

Cheers,



Don
