Through live rock or coral purchase or some other means, I have a Cryptoplax (from the Chiton family?) in my tank. It is the best member of the clean up crew that I've ever had. Been in the tank for around a year or more now. The rock he calls home is practically visible from across the room because it's so much cleaner than the rest. Being a long and soft body, it is flexible and works its way to every nook and cranny and does not disturb any corals. I would love to add another, but can't find anything like it online. Closest thing I can find is a "fuzzy chiton", but I am weary to purchase anything with a shell that gets 3" long for fear it may knock over frags or what not.

Does anybody know of any place you can purchase anything from the Cryptoplax family? Sounds like they're on the rarer side and I know it's a long shot, but hoping somebody out there knows something I don't. Thanks!

(I've included a photo, that is not from my tank, but that is exactly what I have.)
