Found this on my sand bed this morning.
No clue!!!
It's about the size of a quarter. Maybe slightly larger.

It Looks like some type of nudi.

If you flip it over, what does the other side look like? Is it able to be flipped over? with the substrate in the center, I almost believe were looking at the bottom of whatever it may be.

I dunno. I didn't want to touch it.
I can go home and check at lunch. Probably should have grabbed it and isolated it. But it wasn't moving. Even when I turned the lights on for a few minutes to take the photo.

Interesting.. looks sorta like a Nudibranch?

I'm almost inclined to say were looking at the underside of a fleshy limpet

Possibly was crawling in your sandbed and got blown over onto his "back"

Kinda looks like an upside down curled up flatworm that has some sand stuck to it.

This is a definite possibility. I do have some Limpets in the tank.

I do love a good cigar

Ah the weird stuff you get from fresh rock.

 

[d2mini]

I might have to take that cigar back. LOL!

I'm saying "chiton" but that's not what it was. It was a smooth conical shell with hole on top. Limpet. I got confoosed. ;Facepalm But close enough!
