This tiny white bug, Its very flat. This is the second one i seen in my tank its reminds me of a chiton but i can’t really tell. I just want to make sure its not a pest or will harm any corals in my tank.

OK - maybe I'm blind - but no clue what you're looking at? Could you use different lighting - and perhaps put an arrow - where you see what you're looking at?

Need better pics of both sides if possible. Any nerites in your tank? Does it move?

its that tiny dot in front of the bta, if you click the image it will be a little more clear. it was hard to take a photo of it. Not the best quality sorry.

It looks like a limpet to me. They are a common hitchhiker and harmless if I am right.

Does it move? Any appendages? Turn the white up for a new pic.
