ID a critter

[rcoultas]

I can't get a pic so I'll be as descriptive as I can
found this critter on a rock - looks like a flatworm - but it's greenish in color, oval in shape, over 1/2" in length, has a lot of little legs on the underside, soft bodied (no shell), and seems to be able to swim (using undulating motion) I've seen these somewhere before but can't remember if they are good or bad or what they are called. Any ideas or pics?

Like a lettuce nudi maybe? There are some for sale here, search for lettuce and you'll find a picture.

That was my initial thought too.

Nope - it's not a nudi - it is pretty flat, has about 50 little short legs, thought it was flatworm or poss isopod but can't find any pics that look loke it. it is big too - nearly 3/4" long and over 1/4" wide - just seems to hang out on rocks - appears not to like the light - haven't seen it near any corals so I'm letting it be for now.

I gotta go for now - I'll check in later tonight.

not liking ight and having lots of legs makes me think of isopods. did you see the nice (disgusting) thread on isopods in the fish forum?
