What is this guy? www.beyond.co.za/thing.jpg The picture shows only its foot sole... but, it looks to me like a coralivore slug named Tritoniopsis. Animals with a voracious nature which each soft corals. http://images.google.com/images?svnu...toniopsis+slug

This is pretty interesting animal, so if you have some soft corals to spare as feeders for this slug you could keep it and abserve it. Very cool looking beast, don't you think ?
