Black snail?

[Sean1986]

Was visiting a local fish store while they were unloading some rock from a tank breakdown. They came across this and no one there was sure what it was. Thing was 2-3 inches long solid black in color. Soft and slimy but had a hard skeleton underneath. And I didn’t get pics but it does have the two long eye/noses that come out in front. Anyone have any idea what it is?

Maybe a chiton of some kind?

Reminde of a back sea slug

I have one in my tank now, see it randomly from time to time. It's about an inch or so long, must've hitchhiked its way in.

Do you know what it is?

 

[Dan P]

Or perhaps limpet? Just guessing also, sorry

 

[SharkAttack06]

Not really. Just looks and acts like a snail. After doing some quick searches I'm coming up with a scutus antipodes? (elephant slug)

That’s it for sure! Thank you!

YW.

Yup thats a scutus for sure...rumored to eat sps at times...

Been debating about picking it up, can anyone confirm from experience if it’s know to go after sps?
