What is this animal?

[Evie123]

I was wondering what type of animal this is in my reef tank. It is most likely a hitchhiker, but could it also be possible that it is a trochus histrio that has lost its shell?

Would love to get your opinions on this. Sorry for the bad graphics of the photograph as I needed to be quick and could not get anything better as it was gone again in the rockwork.

It is pretty difficult to make out the critter in question here (and a better pic may be needed for a solid ID), but it’s not a shell-less trochus snail. From what I can see (which isn’t much), maybe a Stomatella snail or chiton?

Either way, welcome to Reef2Reef!

Hard to tell but my guess is Stomatella as well. Which is a beneficial hich hiker, however more pictures would help to identify.
