USO -- unidentified slimey object

[Leilani57]

okay, this thing came in out of one of my live rocks, i just want to make sure it is not detrimental to the tank. it looks sorta like a snail without a shell, although there seems to be some type of harder area, but it doesn't cover the whole animal. I attached some pictures, this is as good as a picture I could get cause he was hiding behind a live rock. anyone know what it is and if it is okay to be in the tank?

I second the Stomatella.

Yep, a stomatella, one of my favorite kind.

Hi Debi -- In your second image I see several little tubes that are either pod tubes or worm tubes. Which are they?

Worms.
