It looks like a flat worm with a partial shell towards the rear end.They don't seem to harm my corals, but I have several thousands of them.In the pic the head is facing to right.

It's a small bubble shell slug. It's a harmless grazer.

Thanks greenbean,I suck a bunch at every water change,do you know of any fish that might eat them.I hate looking at my tank with these thing covering the glass.

I'd guess there are lots of people who'd take them off your hands. They're handy algae eaters as Mike noted. Yours look to be a Haminoea species, maybe Haminoea antillarum.

Cheers,

Cool, two bubble snail posts in a row! I would love to have bubble snails. Its not always easy to get nice herbivore slugs.
