Not sure what these are but kinda look like the pic of a Stomatella snail on the sticky for this forum but with different coloring. Initially I though it might be some kind of slug. It is Greyson blue with a darker blue center and is oblong or oval ish in shape.

Anyone know what these are?

Looks like it. Good clean up crew. Does it have flat shell or pyramid shell?

Ok I grabbed one out to look closer. It does seem to have some hardness to the top some a shell. I flipped it over and it does have a foot like appendage.

It isn’t brown like the Stomatella pics and couldn’t really see the face or snout but of course it would have retracted when I picked it off the rock.

Limpet googling seemed to indicate could be SPS muncher at least if keyhole type but other pages or types don’t mention this.
