Anyone who can help me ID this little guy, I would greatly appreciate iit. It looks to me to be a snail without a shell but I need to know if OK for tank as over the past couple of weeks I have aquired about 10 of these little guys, thet just started popping up! Thanks in advance.

Did you acquire any new soft corals? The picture isn't really good enough to tell but they do look like arminid nudibranchs which are specialized feeders on soft corals, sea pens, etc.
 
No new soft corals in the past several months. should I leave them alone or try to pull them out? They are almost always on the glass either in front or the back. Thanks Again,

If you are lucky they are specialized to feed on something you dont have and accidently hitchhiked in on something else. In this case they will most likely just die off. I would however keep a close eye on your corals especially at night for any sign that they are on one. a few of them may not be enough to do alot of harm, but as their popualtion grows so will their appetite.
