Can't confirm, most Limpets are good, but have few which are corals eting.
The problem with most of them, they grow big, and they are very powerful, and can like bulldozers, to move/push and destroy the not strong attached LR from the aquascape or corals to fall at the bottom.

If I have to deal with it, I'll toss it in the sump to play safe with it. At least if it's microalgae ot detritus eater, will clear there for you. But if eat macroalgae can damage/eat some if you use the sump for refugium (different from chaetomorpha, that one is safe)

Yeah dude I'm almost positive that's a limpet. They're harmless in my tank. Extra CUC IMO.
